Chasing fairy tales
Fever dreams
Anything but reality
Just to feel something
Anything
Only to be reminded
Pulled back
Shaken awake
Those dreams are only temporary
They don’t last forever
Nothing really ever does

Allowing the music to swallow me whole
Immersed so deeply, just to run away from all my racing thoughts
The bass ricocheting so hard, I feel the headphones shaking
Drowning within the water of lyrics
Letting myself sink deeper and deeper
As each notes caresses me

The words linger on my tongue
As I contemplate if I should waste my breathe
On the words, I want to say to you
Yet again, it would be as if I was speaking to a concrete wall
Reverberating every word with an echo into the silent abyss
The hallow interactions, in which I mostly carried on my back

As much as I want to admit that I would love to curl up into a ball and sleep for days and never wake up. I doubt that it’ll give me any relief or comfort. Due to the fact that, I know that insomnia has its chokehold on me. So firm, to the point where the idea of sleeping scares me.
