If you only knew the sensation of being jolted awake, 3a.m., time and time again. Until sleep no longer feels necessary to survive and your body and mind become numb.
The drum beat of a life.
Constant, unwavering.
The voice of a child.
Small, helpless.
The words of desperation.
A last stand, a final chance.
The cry for help.
