If I could sleep I might dream of wonderful things.
Instead my body keeps waking me up hour after hour and for the past three days I have seem 3:58am and 5:42am and 6:03am all to often flash brightly in my eyes. No calls, no messages, no sounding alarms...but you still continue to want my attention. What is out there that I need to find; that cannot be found in my dreams? You wake me. With hot flashes, fears, a knotted stomach. I want to go back to my dreams. Back to the peaceful still of my body as it rests.
