I am sleeping
Wait, no I’m not
I can’t sleep
Staring at the blank white ceiling
Which is more than I can say
About the emptiness
which is me

Why would I do anything else
I don’t think my friends
Appreciate my presence
I don’t think my guitar
Wants my ***** hands all over it

But my bed
My bed lo-

“What?!”
...
“Yeah! I’ll do it later
I’m a little *******
At the moment!”

-ves me
It grips me up and never wants to let go
Similar to a mother

No no no
just a mother
Who you haven’t seen in a while

Ten texts and three calls
I leave my phone off of the charge
Hopefully it dies soon
Like with my desires
To ever leave my bed
You shouldn’t worry
About the monsters under your bed
The monsters above your pillow
Are much more frightening

— The End —
