Have you ever wanted something so bad that you couldn’t sleep no matter how many shadows you catch bouncing off the wall. You couldn’t eat and the growls of your stomach make music for your circling pets to dance to. You couldn’t think, your brain is weighted by your dreams.

You lose control of everything so much so that everything controls you instead of you controlling it. Finally, you feel the sweat dripping down your swollen cheeks and you find yourself wondering whether you should laugh or cry. Here’s to me, in my sleep deprived world.
