eyes peel open              my nostrils tingle as the smells of soil and sweat                           permeate the air the heat is unbearable     breathing shallow             movement restricted I only wish to wipe the sleep from my eyes *who would prevent me                          such a simple request?* anxiety billows for                 a brief moment       surrendering complacently as the frequency of my rising chest                                     slows I sense my sightless eyes dimming resting shut  I am so tired...
