Sleepless Nights, Endless Days
The clock clangs, a mocking reminder of the time that drips away. Darknesss stretch and yawn across the room as I stare out into the vacant night. The world dozes, but my mind churns like a dervish. My thoughts tangled in a chaotic dance, each one a screeching echo of my anxiety. This endless cycle drains me, sapping my strength. I long for tranquility, but it fades just as I touch for it.
Gazing upon Sheep That Never Come
The dark sky above was a canvas for drifting stars, yet the sheep never appeared. I analyzed them in my mind's vision, each one a fluffy form against the night backdrop. But they remained distant in the realm of imagination.
- Disappointment began to creep, 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 fear. My mind races feverishly, trapped in a relentless cycle of thoughts that unravel. I toss and struggle, drained by the very thing that should bring me renewal: sleep.
- Glimpses creep by, each one a painful reminder of my frailty.
- The world around sleeps soundly, unaware of my mental torment.
- Dawn arrives, bringing with it a heavy sense of defeat and a prolonged exhaustion that afflicts me throughout the day.

It was a time when trepidation could easily grip your heart. Some people felt peace in the darkness, but for others, it was a battleground where their fears came to light.
- They faced his personal problems, seeking an escape from the night's grip.
- Within this courage could be cultivated, but it often came at a significant toll.

Some crave it, some fear it. But once you've experienced its icy touch, you can never truly be untouched.
- It lingers
- Within your sleep
- An inescapable truth
