《Diary of an Insomniac》Night 7
Advertisement
Its 2:43 am and I haven't written for the past couple of days. The last two days have been the same, me sick. After I got over that headache I went to sleep. I don’t remember what kind of dream I had but I woke up crying. It really freaked me out. It felt real like one moment I'm under water and I can't breathe then the next moment I'm in my sheets. The bed was soaked from my sweat. That had woke me up an hour earlier than usual and I didn't feel like going back to sleep. I was a pretty out of it. I went through my usual routines at school. I drove through the traffic. Some girl flipped me off. Some guy couldn’t drive like a normal person because he was on the phone. I went to class and listened to some interesting environmental information that would probably be on the test. Afterward I went to my lab and presented some summaries to the lab assistant. Once the lab was finished I bid my lab partners adios and made my way home. The sun was setting and that weird twilight glow was out. The sky looked amazing and filled me with certainty that no matter what we humans do each other there will always be splendor. Even after leave the plant after we have made it inhospitable or we have either killed ourselves off, there will always be a sunset that covers the land in that trademark bizarre shine.
What a pleasant sunset. I see the red glow casting its mirror image on the ocean that stretches out to the horizon. The waves are not very lively today. No, they are peaceful as I am peaceful. I stare at the horizon attempting to see that which goes past it. I know that the globe is round and that all I'll be able to see is the sunlight being stretched around the curve of the world. I find it absolutely stunning. That the sky is given its color by the atmosphere and its refraction of the daylight. All the colors that make up the visible world come from such a slender window in the range of light waves. My body shudders and my hair rises up. There is beauty everywhere we look. This superb sight gives me great delight. It's just right, completely just right. I feel the muzzle pressed against the top of my neck. I will forever remember nature's dignity. They is, they is, they is.

Once darkness had covered the ground I arrived to my abode. I ate, watched TV, and did my homework. Now I'm in my bed that rests on the carpeting. I went to the bank today. There was a famous book critic in line. I tried to speak with him but as his critiques show he's not a very nice man. I'm looking at my journal and this should be my fifth entry. I've looked through the previous pages and there's some weird story for the past two days I didn't write. I'm worried I'm going crazy.
