The worst thing about not being able to sleep is how the silence of the lonely hours howls, wailing at him. It works its way into his brain, taking over, not letting him relax enough to close his eyes.

He hears all the things that usually live just beyond the level of his perception.

His body thrums along with the electrical current that’s hiding in wires buried in the walls. He vibrates in time with the air conditioner.

Each tick of his watch brings morning closer as he screams his frustration into his pillow, waiting for the night to end.
