The crack of my hands is deafening in this still night A deep ache in the small of my back tells me I should be lying still Eyes burning red Am I awake or is this a dream? Numbness tingling up my arm I need another cigarette and something to quench this addiction |

This does not sound like a very peaceful night! Before you go to bed at night, why not have a nice warm bath with some lavender essential oil added to it, then drink some warm milk sweetened with vanilla and honey, do some deep breathing exercises, meditate on a beautiful place where you would love to be and then picture yourself there, listen to the waves of a sound machine-- and drift off to la-la land! If those suggestions don't work, knock back a pint of beer, a magnum of champagne and a mickey of gin then take 2 aspirins and call me in the morning! P.S. I think knuckle cracking is only for the brave of heart--not for the feint of heart like myself! tehe Interesting piece of writing! Sweet dreams!... EA |

A deep ache in the small of my back tells me I should be lying still Eyes burning red Oh the toss and turn of racing thoughts! It's time to sleep~ Laughing at EA while turning the lights out. Dream a little dream littlewing~ |

Very good write, littlewing... your pen name reminds me of the small mayflies that will soon come to dip into our summer tea... |
