sleep.
its not that hard
lay down
slowly
close your eyes
but
you know whats coming
nightmares of
falling backwards off the roof
of the top of the
roof of "his"
apartment building
because you are the
"other woman"
and the only woman came home
early.
she pushed you
grabbed you by the hair
and pulled you up
the stairs
by the hair
telling you
you were a worthless
shhh
no need for that kind of language
action
this is all about action
it started with action
turned into a reaction
ending with a subtraction
of life
sleep
its not that hard
being awake is the evil part.
