Somnolence

By Lunar Eclipse

. . .eternal slumber. . .

I don’t care. I’m NOT setting my alarm.

. . .she drifted off, and never awoke. . .

I deserve a break, don’t I? Besides, I’ve been so weak lately BECAUSE of my lack of sleep.

. . .(whispers) ‘rest in peace’. . .

I need to rest. My body needs to heal. So does my mind – I can’t think straight.

. . .a faint lullaby rocks her in her dreams. . .

I don’t know if I even DO want to wake up, again. I know, I know. I will have to face my life eventually

and I WANT to because, right now, I’m not enjoying it. I need to change to make it feel good again.

(Hmm. Change, the only constant, the dreaded state of being, the hardest thing for humans to deal with.)

. . .sweet, sweet dreams. . .

Stress-free. I hope my dream world tonight is stress-free; I’ve been having WAY too many anxiety dreams

lately. I just want to exist in a different reality for a while; clear my thoughts.

. . .go to sleep. Sleep. . .

Sleep.

I sleep
