Sleepless Nights, Endless Days
The clock clangs, a mocking reminder of the time that flees away. Darknesss stretch and yawn across the room as I glint out into the vacant night. The world dozes, but my mind spins like a dervish. My thoughts collide in a chaotic storm, each one a grating echo of my fear. This tedious cycle leaves me, sapping my strength. I crave for tranquility, but it fades just as I grasp for it.
Staring at Sheep That Never Come
The blank sky above was a canvas for flitting stars, yet the sheep never came. I analyzed them in my mind's eye, each one a fluffy form against the indigo backdrop. But they remained distant in the realm of dreams.

- Containment eluded me, trapped in a cycle of imagining.

- Beneath your eyelids
- An inescapable truth
