she is alone.
after a long day of insanity
after a stressful day of dealing with humanity
she is alone.
she doesn't put her things away
they are dropped by the door
they crash onto the floor
she doesn't need them anyway
she doesn't need anything but time alone.
She trudges upstairs
lays on her bed
lays down her head
she barely cares
she just wants to sleep while she has time alone.
she slams her eyes shut
but the thoughts whirl sporadic
but thoughts break and wreak havoc
she wants her mind to stay put
she wants to sleep while she has time alone.
but she can't.
so she stares at the ceiling.
numb
