Awake

Awake 
is when it gets to her 
Awake 
is when the thoughts 
spill into places that 
they don't belong 
Awake 
is when the idea of
tranquility is killed 
Awake 
is when she will not 
allow herself to have 
the space to breathe 
Awake 
is when she must 
return to the place 
she is trying to avoid
Awake 
is when the people 
try to reach her 
Awake 
is when she is the 
most alone
