Night time troubles.

There is pain deep set deep in my flesh
That aches and groans at me.
Clicks, creaks and shaky hands
Skin is torn, hardened and cracked
Blood seeps through and stains.
Chills race along my bones
And shudders echo in my limbs.
Muscles tear and throb exhaustion.
Eyes and nose leak from cold
Feet are frozen and numb.

Sink into hot beckoning blankets,
Burry into soft puffy pillows,
And sleep.
