[hometext] => i feel like this alot and im getting tireder and tireder
[bodytext] => Eyelids drooping, Tiredness coursing through my body in tides, Nodding and starting, Nodding and starting. I rebel against my instincts. I dont need sleep, What a waste of time- dreaming, only to wake up again and the do the same things all over again, and so sleep provides the only diversity. Create your own diversity whilst others sleep. Create a living dream rather than the conformist imaginary. Be awake amongst the sleepers, And revel in the loneliness. They are all so unaware, and oblivious in their state. I am alert and focused, the only one awake. They are powerless to the night, And I am the one holding the light- I will not succumb and I will overrun their stimuli. So dont try and sleep, surrendering eyes, Not understanding this need I possess to lie in this mass of unconsciousness. Know I am the only one, experiencing the delights of dark quietness. Know I make my own conscious compared to their subconscious indifference; only authorized as sun sets. I make my own conscious, dont forget, ignorant eyelids needing no nighttime safety blanket. You are not alone in your pair, and I am not alone in this bed. Embracing this solidarity.
