As I lay here
Fighting a battle within myself
To avoid the many horrors
That awaits for me in my sleep.
I feel my eyes lids feel heavy
As my heart pounds in a panic
Knowing that pretty soon
this personal battle
will over consume me
Forcing my fears to begin
Allowing my memories
To again show themselves
Forcing me to again relive them
An endless cycle
That never ends.
