I Have Insomnia

the night always keeps me awake. im finally alone with my thoughts and i can never stop myself from drowning in them. i dont know how i'd make it through without music. i find these hours so lonely, the world seems to be asleep. i love and hate the isolation, i like being able to sit and think and feel what i want without having to worry about anyone else. i hate that i often think myself into a hole though. despair, grief, depression, anxiety. the thieves of my sleep.

Um. Maybe you are just a night owl.

Serious. I was born just after midnight. I've been a night person all my life. I think the roughest couple years of my life was trying to be a daywalker. Hint: I wear glasses. Wanna know why...? Because my eyes let in too much light to focus naturally. Thus, the darker it is... the sharper my vision. My kids think I have supernatural powers because I can navigate the entire house in total darkness without making a sound (night vision + Marine training = scary shit, as far as the kids are concerned... LOL)

You should stop fighting the urge to remain awake at night and embrace it.

Besides, those of us who work this "super hard" shift get paid MUCH MORE to do it. (Do not let them figure out that it's easy for you! You will wreck it for us all!)

@GwydionFrost yes!! i am most definitely a night owl, my friends and family always joke that im nocturnal. and am the exact same with eyesight! ive always had great night vision and the worlds thickest glasses in the daytime. i haven't quite figured out how to make a successful life for myself at night though, work and social life wise.
