Sleep Apnea Poem by Andy Caldwell

Sleep Apnea



My eyes fall closed
then jerk open
I sleep for a short moment
I am tired worn and weary
but my sleep isn't deep
my breathing slows
I begin an apnea snore
then choke and awaken
for the briefest moment
I am as dead as a corpse
and then I start breathing
my heart returns beating
as I return to the living
as I have many times before
