Words of Healing

It feels like I fell asleep with my eyes open. I can’t wake up; I’ve tried many times, but I can’t get any rest. I can’t close my eyes either. I am stuck in a stasis of not awake or asleep. My consciousness is ajar.

I am tired, but I can’t go to sleep. I am hungry, but I don’t eat any food. I am the poison and the antidote. I am broken, but put together.

I can’t put myself together, but only I can.
