Rest In Peace

I feel my chest rise and fall, focusing on my breathing. I lay on my back, hands held against my chest as I begin to relax. My mind slowing down from an eventful day, finally silence. My eyes focused on the ceiling for a moment or two, feeling them grow heavy and weak. Soon, darkness as I try and visualize a future dream I want. Thump, Thump. I listen to my heartbeat, feeling it beat against its cage of blood and flesh. For once everything felt like it was going to be okay, I could feel myself falling into the abyss of sleep. My body shutting itself down so it can rest for tomorrow. BAM! I jump awake. Ah, yes; the familiar feeling of falling. I wonder if that happens to other people. A sigh escapes my lips, making myself relax once more. I close my eyes, regain focus on my breathing. Dream breathing, feeling myself slowly drift off again. This time successfully. Let my dreams be a good one.
