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 gaze out into the still night. The world dozes, but my mind races like a top. My thoughts jumble in a chaotic frenzy, each one a screeching echo of my anxiety. This tedious cycle exhausts me, eroding my energy. I long for tranquility, but it evades just as I reach for it.
Gazing upon Sheep That Never Come
The dark sky above was a canvas for flitting stars, yet the sheep never appeared. I catalogued them in my mind's gaze, each one a fluffy form against the velvet backdrop. But they remained lost in the realm of dreams.
- Anxiety began to creep, as I desired for the calming rhythm of their baaing.
- Containment eluded me, trapped in a cycle of counting.
Sleepless Nightmares
Sleep, once a comforting sanctuary, eludes 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 spin. I toss and fidget, depleted by the very thing that should bring me comfort: sleep.
- Minutes creep by, each one a painful reminder of my frailty.
- The world around sleeps soundly, unaware of my internal torment.
- Morning arrives, bringing with it a heavy sense of defeat and a prolonged exhaustion that follows me throughout the day.
Wrestling With the Night
The moon hung low in the sky, casting long shapes across the quiet landscape. A bitter wind moaned through the trees, carrying with it the scent of decay. It was a time when anxiety could easily take hold. Many people sought comfort in the darkness, but for others, it was a testing ground where their fears came to life.
- They confronting his inner troubles, seeking relief from the darkening world.
- In this journey, strength could be discovered, but it often came at a great price.

Nightmare fuel, it consumes in the deepest crevices of your mind. It's the stuff that makes sleep paralysis, blooms as shadows under your bed, and leaves you trembling in the cold dawn. Some desire it, some fear it. But once you've tasted its icy touch, you can here never truly be free.
- It lingers
- In your dreams
- An inescapable truth
