The void
Between being awake and being – not
That hateful place
Between rest and unhappy limbs, writhing
How does one escape?
I’m stuck
Too tired to function
Too aware to sleep
How do I escape?
I’m frustrated
Irritated
With a heavy head
Eyes too sensitive for light
Spirit floating, searching for thought
How can I escape?
Either side of the fence, I happily will go
But in between?
On this no man’s land?
Here contentment is no word
Please let me escape!
