Have you ever suddenly become aware that if you fall asleep it is entirely possible that you will never wake up. Has this thought ever rushed to your brain like it was injected to a vein and left you paralyzed with fear, lying in your bed like a frozen statue, not willing to relinquish yourself to this awful unknown void that is just waiting to overtake your mind and then you forget.
Sleep is terrifying. It is terrifying to me. It takes you over... no, worse, it ends you. When sleep begins, you end. You no longer exist. You have not only reliquished control, but you are no longer even conscience of a control or a lack of control or anything at all, and all that's left is a terrible nothing that isn't even apparent until it ends.
if that is what the real end is like, I don't want to know.
