Still sleeping...

Still sleeping...

Imagine
The worst 
When you're 
Lying there
Your
Head splits
Getting bigger 
And bigger
You're frightened 
Wanting to
Cry
What would 
Other people
Think
A big 
Concrete ball
Coming 
Towards you
I'm on 
A bridge
My body
Is getting smaller
My head 
Is getting bigger
I want 
To scream
Out loud
I want
To scream 
Out loud
My 
Mouth
My
Voice
My
Body
Won't move
I'm a prisoner
To my sleep
Concrete ball 
Coming 
Closer and closer 
But yet...
I'M STILL SLEEPING.

I've soaked pillows with my emotions,
