Sleepless Nights, Endless Days
The clock ticks, a mocking reminder of the time that drips away. Shadows stretch and yawn across the room as I glint out into the still night. The world slumbers, but my mind spins like a top. My thoughts jumble in a chaotic storm, each one a grating echo of my anxiety. This tedious cycle leaves me, eroding my strength. I long for sleep, but it eludes just as I grasp for it.
Gazing upon Sheep That Never Come
The blank sky above was a canvas for wandering stars, yet the sheep never came. I analyzed them in my mind's gaze, each one a fluffy silhouette against the velvet backdrop. But they remained lost in the realm of imagination.
- Disappointment began to invade, as I longed for the calming rhythm of their baaing.
- Sleep eluded me, trapped in a cycle of counting.
Insomnia's Grip
Sleep, once a comforting sanctuary, now flees me like a phantom. Each night, the darkness descends, bringing with it not peace, but a mounting unease. My mind races feverishly, caught in a relentless cycle of thoughts that unravel. I toss and struggle, exhausted by the very thing that should bring me repair: sleep.
- Glimpses creep by, each one a painful reminder of my vulnerability.
- The world outside sleeps soundly, unaware of my mental torment.
- Morning arrives, bringing with it a heavy sense of defeat and a persistent exhaustion that follows me throughout the day.

It was a moment when anxiety could easily consume your mind. Many people sought comfort in the darkness, but for others, it was a testing ground where their fears came to surface.
- They confronting their personal troubles, seeking an escape from the suffocating night.
- Within this journey, hope could be cultivated, but it often came at a significant toll.
Fuel of Nightmares
Nightmare fuel, it consumes in the deepest crevices of your mind. It's the stuff that breeds sleep disturbances, manifests as creatures under your bed, and leaves you sweating in the cold dawn. Some desire it, some abhor it. But once you've tasted its icy touch, you can never truly be untouched.
- It haunts
- In your dreams
- A haunting echo
