Sleep
Flick!
The darkness touches the corners of my room.
I jump in
and settle into the warm sheets.
Music fills the room
and lightly soothes my buzzing head.
I can already feel my eyes get heavy.
Then the sleep takes me uhnder it's spell
and I lay there for hours.
Until I am jolted awake.
I rise with silence now filling the room.
Not this again
I thought.
I close my eyes
in hopes that sleep will take me back.
Only for my alarm clock to wake me back up.

I just like to put my feeelings down on paper, since that seems easier than anything else. I also had problems with waking up in the middle of the night lately and that's pretty much what this is about.
