He doesn't sleep

The shadows dance along the walls,
All sounds seem to silence,
Soon laughter Hysterical and pleading for help.
He laughs only to hold back the tears.
These nights he does not sleep,
These nights,
he hides beneath the sheets and pretends,
Pretends that this is normal,
When he knows it’s not.
