Before I fall asleep

Trenz Pruca

Before I fall asleep,
And after I awake.
The existential malaise,
Is difficult to fake.

To those that never felt,
The night that does not end
Bearing fast down on them
Like an angry train
It is hard to explain
That fear is not a friend.

    Oh my. You nailed it.

    The night that does not end
    Bearing fast down on them
    Like an angry train

    Yes, tied to the tracks, or maybe frozen in our own tracks, watching the locomotive in the distance relentlessly heading our way. I don't know whether to praise this poem or curse you for it.

    I can relate to this.
