Description
lay me down to sleepsleeping sleepless
the voices in my head just said
fall asleep
falling fallen fell
please god, make them stop
talking talked, laughing, weeping, screaming, and worse, just muttering
like some kitten hit by a truck, and wondering why it can't die.
sometimes we see, hear things...
that..
even 10 years later,
as we fall asleep, we cannot escape
they were not the sounds of a kitten... but the sounds of a small child, crying. scared, alone.
10 years later,
i am still haunted by that night.
each time i think i forgot it,
it finds me a night or two later, stronger.
