having sore, slowly focusing eyes, upon waking.taennynAugust 27 2008, 19:47:00 UTC
His eyes hurt, dull ache of too long staring, too much time watching, not quite enough water and never enough sleep.
But today when he opened his eyes in the half-dark of a false dawn, forced himself to focus on the room, he saw a shadow in the armchair by the window, heard a familiar soft voice say "Go back to sleep--the world can wait another few hours."
He didn't let himself think about it, just let himself fall back into the pillow and his eyes close again.
