i quietly stand
a shell of a man

sleep


I am tired

so tired


my hands feel numb

dry

hurting

as I force myself to type


I see double

I can't focus

the signals from my brain

to my hands

are

scrambled


even

auto correct

can't help


my head

pounds

like 

someone

beating on my temples

smashing out of me

words

that make 

no sense


memories

lost

images 

fading

thoughts

???


i need to sleep

I have to sleep


but


will i be rested

will I 

awake

or

will

this sleep

be eternal


please

just let me

sleep
