I feel like I am missing something... Is it you? or is it poetry? The strange ache in my chest is coming back again, and I cannot explain it but it aches, it burns, as if I had drank alcohol but ****** I haven't drink, not even a drop. I just want to curl up into a ball, turn off the lights of my room, and sleep it off. I want to hybernate the entire month of December, I don't want to go out, I want to stay in, I just want to stay in. There's so much ache, I do not like alcohol. It intensifies the ache, and I just want to sleep it off. I want to hold my pillow, I want to sit in one corner, curl up into a ball. I want to go to and fro, to and fro, leaning front and back, front and back, as if I was listening to waves, going to and fro, to and fro, calm, tranquil, retreating backwards, ebbing back into the sun... But life doesn't let me sleep. It continues awakening me. It continues calling me. And I just want to sleep the ache, I want to dream that I live in peace, but my dreams are vast, too vast that even when life calls me, its voice echoes, twice, thrice, "wake up" I open my eyes, there's the light... Life doens't want me to sleep in darkness, it wants me to awake... to open my eyes, to no longer be blinded by it's brightness...
