DOUBLE POST TN CUZ I WAS GONE FOR LIKE 10 DAYS (and bc i feel like it so y not)
idk abt yall, but my mind likes to run at HIGH SPEED when i try to sleep and then, ofc, it just doesn't work at all during the day
like why T-T
*******
Sleep (and the Inner Workings of A Tired Mind)
A soft, puffed pillow
With light, warm blankets
The promise of silence waiting
But a mind running far too fast to stop
Waves of sleep crash over me
And I let them keep coming
They're shallow enough so I can't drown
Both a blessing and a curse
Exhaustion drags me downward
Like a weight sitting on my body
I shut my eyes in an attempt to fall
But instead I float, bordering consciousness
My mind continues swimming
Diving deeper and deeper
And my body begs for it to stop
To give it a rest
To make the pain go away
But deeper it goes
Down and down and down
And still the waves are too loud to sleep

PoetryA poetry/journal book for me so I can get my feelings onto somewhere and not drown in them :D TW: implied suicidal thoughts, body dysmorphia, and possibly others (you've been warned) Don't let other opinions alter your reality ;) Published: Jul 28...
