sleep

keep the feeling of pain in your heart until time finally comes, and happiness will hug you every time you sleep. pain brought you to your bed.

pain led you to crying in your pillows. it taught you how to befriend the monster under your bed.

pain had your eyes covered with darkness. it made you stay under your blanket. you embraced loneliness, thinking you are alone.

pain told you that night stays up until the next morning. it never introduce you what daylight is. you never saw how bright sunshine is, because you left your windows closed.

pain had you in prison. and you let it cover the only way to escape. you locked yourself.

hush now, sweetheart. listen to the silence living in your room. stop crying and close your eyes. you will see nothing, and that's the future. we never know what will happen next.  we got no clue nor any hints of what's ahead.

keep your eyes closed, and see what you see. imagine doors opening, curtains being opened and sunlight embracing the paleness of your body.

find yourself sleeping, escaping the premises of loneliness. free yourself.
