Evening Soundtrack

I find it strange how loud the night is. From my bed there is a steady deafening hum of insect's in my backyard. I can hear trucks roaring down the highway, and there is an ever present train reminding me of days gone by. Once the light of the computer is out, it seems as if it isn't even dark anymore because my eyes adjust and I can see the outline of the trees. I find that if I concentrate on any of these distractions I can't sleep no matter how tired I may be and I have to put on my iPod for distraction.

It is 2:14am.
