There are always those restless nights I have every once in awhile where I just can't seem to sleep and my head won't hit the pillow just right. It seems as if the hours of the night drag on for eternity, as I just lay there tossing and turning for the majority of my restless night. I lay there wishing I could fall asleep or that it would be morning already so that I would't be the only one wide awake, so that I would't be so alone. Sometimes it's my thoughts that keep me up, other times I am just restless and uncomfortable. I dread nights like these. It is one thing to be awake and consumed in your own thoughts, but it is dreadful to be awake in the middle of the night with not even your thoughts to keep you company. Other nights my own nightmares keep me awake and I can't fall back asleep because my brain won't quit wondering- "What if it were real?" I hate restless nights like these, spent tossing and turning until the sun finally rises. It is as if I can only finally let my body rest when I see the sunshine coming thru my window.
That's how it always goes for me, too! I finally get comfy and sleepy about the time I need to get up...
