All I have to say is r&r pretty please with a cherry on top I must add people.
0000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000
And now I lay me down to sleep...
I close my
eyes tightly, do not let in a single ray of light.
Breathing
in, out, in, out loudly.
As if the stamina erupts from my
heart like a volcano,
I can no longer lie here.
I close my
eyes, and begin to think.
As I look around the room, I wonder
how my eyes became opened,
When I strained so hard to keep
them shut tightly.
The sweat forms droplets on my
forehead.
And I hear them drip down my face.
I think I'm
going crazy.
But why am I thinking?
Have to get to sleep,
have to get to sleep.
As I attempt to close my eyes again I
begin to count.
One, two...
Buckle my shoe.
I remember
that from when I was a kid, and I laugh.
No time to joke, I
must sleep.
One sheep, Two sheep, Three sheep.
And I
remember nursery school.
Baa Baa black sheep, Have you any
wool?
I need to sleep if I want to go to school.
Close your
eyes, I murmur to myself.
CLOSE THEM!
And so I do, and then
begins again the struggle.
The long lost fight of an
insomniac.
And as I lie, and think, and count, and
breathe,
The sun peaks through the horizon.
Another
sleepless night to add to the other 3.
And so I begin another
day,
Only to end with a night of struggle.
