*It is +1 because this is extended from the original.

Hello insomnia, old friend,
It is a pleasure to see you again.

Did you bring the anchor?
I cannot stay here without a floor,
Do not worry, I brought my own baggy.

White shades upon the ceiling,
Pleasant dreams happen quickly.

I think I need more, insomnia,
I can still see the monitors,
Fuzzy feelings and blurred vision.

White shades upon the ceiling,
Pleasant dreams happen quickly.

The fall from grace will be swift,
Not even faith could stop this.

Longing for belonging,
Insurmountable apathy for society,
It had to happen eventually.

This mighty collapse from the top,
Eyes all bloodshot and ****ed up,
Shaking and panting for anything.

The fall from grace was swift,
And I cannot see myself regretting this.

Because I am over here, nox,
And you are across the tracks over there, lux.

White shades upon the ceiling,
Pleasant dreams happen quickly.

This is not mine, but your piece made me think of it and of dichotomy, duality...Thanks for a great read!flowerforyou

a glimmer of light

I like throwing Latin into the mix; hah, Ainjel.flowerforyou

Aversum is Latin for "Other side" amongst other things, I used nox and lux as well. Nox being Latin for Dark, and Lux Light. I just realized that I am over here staring at everyone else...Finally realized I'm so weird that normal is foreign to me.

So I decided I'd rather embrace it than despise it.

Thank you all, I hope you enjoyed it.
