I hate going to sleep.
Because the hours I lay in my bed,
In the darkness,
In the state of restlessness,
Are the hours my brain overflows with thoughts.
Otherwise, I lay there with absolutely nothing but the silence.
White noise rings in my ear.
I'm afraid of what silence does to me.
I'm afraid of the unknown.
