Sleepless Nights, Endless Days
The clock whirs, a mocking reminder of the time that melts away. Darknesss stretch and yawn across the room as I gaze out into the empty night. The world slumbers, but my mind races like a top. My thoughts tangled in a chaotic frenzy, each one a whispered echo of my worry. This ageless cycle leaves me, eroding my worst sleeping strength. I long for tranquility, but it eludes just as I grasp for it.
