The Beautiful Things at the Bottom of the Sea - Drowning in Your Sleep

You are smiling. ----Night, for most of the world it's a time of rest and reflection. Some give thanks, others passout, then there are those who have restless nights with very little sleep. These individuals may have so much stress that keeps them up and its hard for them to turn everything off. This is probably the most common form of sleepless nights. However, if someone is afraid to sleep because of their dream cycle, this could be worse than stress. Imagine yourself lying in bed asleep no self control and you fall into the same dream every night. The dream causes real tears, some nights you wake up just before you drown. It's as if you are in a comma of the same nightmare. But you wake up gasping for a breath, you just need the nearest person to hold you, but there is no one, there has never been anyone. Some nights you die in your dreams and you never wanna wake up. At least you don't feel your heartbeat in a dream. But in a world that rejects you, that is the only other daily option - drown in a state of unconsciousness during the night terrors of sleep. One life feels uncontrollable and you have nowhere to turn, your best bet is just to drown in your real tears so you never have to wake up and face the cycle again. The soul can't get a break and never has chance to heal, it's the never-ending nightmare. Which ultimately makes you become a fake person in reality as if you're constantly reading the employee hand out book, the section that states leave everything at the door. Except in this case the door is your eyelids opening up every morning. So as soon as your eyelids open you are the clock. Good morning, you survived another night, be sure to grab a quick bite to eat and don't forget to grab the fake smile out of the drawer. You are a good night swimmer.
