BED!

A simple three lettered word that could save your life...BED!! i am not and i mean NOT exaggerating at all..It is the safest place on earth...and I'm not talking about a bed you share with someone but your own very bed...or maybe your back turned to who ever is on the other side. First of all after a long day not necessarily crappy you go there with the weight of the world on your shoulders..then you invade the bed's first frontier the bedsheets...one by one (if multi layers present) the bed surrenders to you without a fight maybe you need a tug here and there but then it succumbs to you restlessly.

Now as soon as your head hits the pillows with a hit here and there..nothing is there in bed but you and your thoughts. This is the ultimate enemy your facing now..all the demons in your head and the real battle begins and at some point you will know who has won this battle was it you or was it your thoughts.The ultimate judge is insomnia.

Now here comes the BED's help..somehow it has this power to absorb all your thoughts and send you on this trance where your mind body and soul barley hanging by a thread with your consciousness..then you surrender.
The power is too seductive, too overwhelming that you finally give in and let go.
The trick here that your sleep is as much as a friend as it is your foe...how many times did you want to stay in this warm and perfect illusion and you fight with every fiber in your being to stay in BED.
Yet again how many times in this perfect illusion did you get a nightmare so real that you can feel every breathe of air your lungs try to grasp the cold damp atmosphere surrounding you.. the pain that is so real you feel your body twisting and turning and resisting... the scream that you can no longer hold and you scream your heart out but still no one can hear you..and again with every fiber in your being you try to wake up and leave the relinquishment you once held so dear to you.
BED that place you crawl to thinking that the day you leave it again is the day everything outside it is alright and the dark times,the boring times are over. But the trick is that BED is all a state of mind. It can be your illusion,your reality, your solitary cell. And if a cellmate exists it's the part of you that is in denial or that part of you that screams the truth to your face.
So in the end..How well do you really know the person you go to bed with each and every night..furthermore do you really want to be sleeping with the enemy???
The safest place on earth or the most dangerous territory...BED!

  2. I think you should consider making a book and collect all these nonsense sense articles and pieces in it and maybe one day find a publisher.
