Just a little something I jotted down on Thursday night when I couldn't sleep. Raw- no edits since then

@Bunniekins @Appleblossom @TAB @Meowmy @Bill16 @Former-Member @Shaz51  and plenty of others- far from an exhaustive list

I hope someone gets something from it

 

Survive

Resolutely ruminating

I can’t escape my tired self

Trapped inside this timeless torment

Wild nightmares echo in my mind

 

Please afford me some compassion

I haven’t yet abandoned hope

Peace may yet be attained

If I can just survive tonight
