Confessions of an Insomniac

9:30 pm. Exhausted.

Sleep has been very rare.

I was determined to sleep soundly...


5:42 am.

Not exhausted.

Got about two hours of rest.

Woke around midnight.

Haven't gotten shut eye since.


---

I wonder if it's like this with all insomniacs

Staring at the ceiling,

The window,

The closest,

The bookshelf,


Letting the mind just think...

Running through different "what if" situations,

Getting a song stuck deep in the crevices of the brain.

Making mental notes to text, Facebook, or call certain people.


Praying.


This is what I do for 5 hours...
And now since all else has failed, I've resorted to writing.

I've contemplated grabbing a book from the bookshelf I've stared at for hours.

Then quickly moved away from that, knowing I would get lost whatever book I choose....

Instead of being lost in dream land.


I wonder how other Insomniacs recover from a night of no sleep...

I rely of coffee and immense amounts of caffeine.

Needless to say,

I need to fix this fast.


Being an insomniac has taken a toll.

Dark Circles under the eye that make up cannot hide-- sorry girl moment.

The weighted down grogginess... Yeah, that's the worst...



I hope whoever is reading this sleeps/slept well....

Godspeed <3
