The Silence Woke Her

The Silence woke her, no matter how many times her body twisted and turned to cradle her to sleep, the silence deprived her of dreaming. It was not the first time, or would it be the last that the tranquility of the night forced herto get up. As she trudged her tedious body towards the medicine cabinet, she was tempted to yank her hair out with frustration.

She was a zombie;lifeless and slow in movement, but most of all, that human glo she had completely vanished. Her face twisted with a scowl as the horrific image in the mirror stared back at her. Her eyes were a pair of empty pools and beanth them were sagging bags that looked like a neon sign for sleepless nights. Before she could terrorize herself any further, she quickly opened her medicine cabinet and tossed three sleeping pills down her parched throat.

She hoped that one day she would overdose on those pills she consumed like dinner. However, death did not look so bad,at least she would get some rest there. It had to be better than this torment. It would be better than this battle she lost every night. While sitting in the balcony of her apartment,her restless legs shifted, sudden agitation urged them to move. Her body was reminding her that she was not allowed to sleep. Her disorder clung to her,like a tick to a dog. "You're not allowed to sleep" said insomia,mocking her as her eyes fought to stay open.
