The lullaby of my sleepless nights

The crackling noise of the blueberry jar candle takes the sound barrior in my room to a new level as "Bella's Lullaby," plays it's rhythmic harmony in my ears. The lights are off as my shadow flickers and dances on the poster filled walls. My pillow underneath my head is at the perfect angle making it hard for my thoughts not to drift. My long lashes ache to keep open as I fight my hardest to hit the last note of this beautiful melody. Just then the wind crackles and howls at my window almost begging for an escape itself. I feel the room get colder as I burry myself tighter underneath the red suede blanket. As soon as I drift to sleep, I'm awoken by my workout playlist banging in my ears. A quiet sleep turns into drum beats.
