Accordion to 12AP

On a Friday night, I slowly but exciting crawl onto my cozy bed thinking I can finally take a break from virtual learning and college apps. I stare at the dark ceiling hoping for that comfortable tiredness to come, but it never came. I pulled out my phone and started scrolling through Reddit and YouTube in an attempt to find something boring so I can fall asleep. After about half an hour of searching, I settled on some good old "oddly satisfying" videos. Surprisingly, sleep came quickly. I allowed this tiredness to take me away hopefully to a refreshing, dreamless sleep.  I opened my eyes; it is the next morning. I sit up in my bed feeling like a new person. No body aches, no one vacuuming the house, no one mowing their grass outside, and most important no annoying alarm. I probably forgot the turn it on last night, but it's just one day right? I walked into the kitchen and smell some delicious eggs and sausage frying in the pan. I ask my mom what is the special deal toda

I didn't ask to be sitting here alone and useless. I remember the day I was torn out of my warm and cozy home to battle against some unknown enemy. My blood, sweat, and tears are the exact weapons I used to achieve victory. In the end, I won, an easy victory. I expected to return to where I lived; that dark, humid, but clean place. Instead, I was just abandoned here. No one and nothing came to pick me up. I'm just sitting in the same spot slowly drying into a corpse. I cannot find a way to end my misery. I can only wonder when I will be relieved of this nightmare.  Everyday, I see a human moving in and out of this place. I do not know if he sees me or just chooses to ignore me every single time. I try to let him know of my misery, but he does not ever respond. He lives in a different world. He sits at this place everyday to learn about the world, its disorder, and how to find ways to organize them. From simplifying messy math problems to deep philosophies looking for an answer
