I still get like 9-11 hours, but it seems to be more of a chore to fall asleep now. Malevolent thoughts and images go through my head and appear in small sillouettes in the dark by the way my eyes are shaping them, and scare me to death. It's those times I wish there were such thing as a little crystal you could wear around your neck to light up the area around you just so, so you can feel safe.

Aww that so cute and it happens to me all of the time >:\
It's especially annoying if I can't wait for tomorrow. The little doodle at the end is also adorable <3
P.S if you don't mind me asking, how do you get the white outline around the different colors?

Thank you very much!
If you have photoshop, what you do is go under 'Edit' and find 'Stroke' and just choose how many pixels, like 10px and the colour.

i hate when that happens. last night, i couldn't sleep, so i read, which helps. the problem, though, is i can't stop at a good part or i'll just keep thinking about it, so i ended up reading till 3.30

Dude. I love the poem, to be sure, but I love your presentation as well. I love the highlighted words, the little doodle, the font - it's a unique way to publish your poems (vs. the traditional text-only you see so often). Great job!

the best way to avoid that is to just lay and clear your mind. do not think about sleeping or how much you really want to go to sleep, and don't try too hard or it'd be pointless. 
annnnnd i love your poems. the colors give it some character and the little pictures you draw on the bottom are too cute!

I love the way how you visualize your poems, wonderfully done!

... I hate it. I just hate it. I can't fall asleep, but I'm ALWAYS late for school, because I can't wake up. It's horrible. It made me miss a freakin field trip because I missed the bus.

I'm still sad bout that xD
