Distraction

As my eyes close,
the rain pours down on the roof above me.

My tired eyelids matching the pace of the drops that beat down, getting heavier by the minute.

It's soothing, my body synchronizing with the nature around me.

The calming sounds fill my head so the thoughts don't have to fill the usual silence.

Distraction, for now, but anything helps.
