why don’t I sleep? My mind is awake at night with all the things I want to do. It’s like being permanently stuck in another time zone, one with very few hours of darkness. The possibilities. I find all my answers; solving mindless equations. I think about all the people I know, where they are, if they can sleep at night. Am I alone? Do the rest of you sleep while my mind races? It’s a curious thing how the light makes my eyelids heavy and the dark makes me stir. How do you change it? It seems like no matter how hard I try my brain won’t quit. Consciously or unconsciously I am dreaming- of the future and the past, temptation and success. You’re awake too, what is keeping you up?
