Sleep Darkness I can't sleep. To many things on my mind. Eating away at my sanity. Threatening my very self with illusions of what could be. Illusions of other things that no one ever thinks about. Too many things. Too many worries. Too many restless hours thinking about them. They cover me into complete and utter darkness. Yet the room is filled with light. And as my mind turns, drifts farther away, the room gets darker. Until not even the sun couldn't destroy it. So many worries, thoughts , ideas, that rush through my head. They rush through so quickly. As of the speed of light. But there is no light. It's gone. Everything slows down. My mind drifts off. My eyelids grow heavy. More darkness. ©kaitlynmb
