Sleep eludes me tonight, as I toss and turn on my bed with darkness for company and beads of sweat trickling down my face. Of course, I am excited but fear takes over me too. A new fate awaits me tomorrow, as I wait for the release of my debut film. Just like these moths being attracted to a flame, I am drawn to fame. Tomorrow I shall know if the light embraces me or burns me.

DeleteExciting...the best kind of insomnia...
ReplyDeleteOh yeah!
DeleteExcellent response to the prompt.
ReplyDeleteBeautifully penned. But have to admit, it does make me nervous to see my frame of mind so lucidly portrayed by someone. My debut novel 'Twists Of Fate ' is going to be out this October. As the wait is nearing its end, I can more than just relate to the lines you have penned. I can actually feel them :)
