Pale moonlight cuts through the slats of the blinds, painting stripes across the bed. A shadow unfolds from the corner, leaning close until its presence presses down on the air. Insomnia bends over you, his form heavy with a weariness that seems to slow time itself, and gives your shoulder a sharp, insistent shake. The room holds its breath, silent except for the faint echo of a memory not quite forgotten.
