Sleepless Nights, Endless Days
The clock ticks, a mocking reminder of the time that melts away. Darknesss stretch and yawn across the room as I glint out into the empty night. The world rests, but my mind churns like a dervish. My thoughts collide in a chaotic dance, each one a screeching echo of my worry. This tedious cycle exhausts me, eroding my energy. I yearn for rest, but it evades just as I reach for it.
Trying Sheep That Never Come
The empty sky above was a canvas for drifting stars, yet the sheep never appeared. I counted them in my mind's eye, each one a fluffy form against the velvet backdrop. But they remained distant in the realm of dreams.
- Frustration began to crawl, as I yearned for the calming rhythm of their groaning.
- Sleep eluded me, trapped in a cycle of speculating.
The Insomniac's Burden
Sleep, once a comforting sanctuary, evades me like a phantom. Each night, the darkness descends, bringing with it not peace, but a mounting unease. My mind races feverishly, trapped in a relentless cycle of thoughts that jumble. I toss and fidget, exhausted by the very thing that should bring me renewal: sleep.
- Hours creep by, each one a painful reminder of my helplessness.
- The world around sleeps soundly, unaware of my mental torment.
- Light arrives, bringing with it a heavy sense of defeat and a prolonged exhaustion that haunts me throughout the day.
The Midnight Struggle

It was a hour when anxiety could easily consume your mind. Some people felt peace in the darkness, but for others, it was a battleground where their struggles came to surface.

Energy For Dread

- It lingers
- Beneath your eyelids
- A haunting echo
