Sleep.

Quietly embrace the warmth of my bed
Wrapped up in sheets, slowly lower my head
Gently close my eyes, think happy thoughts
Never ending stories with never ending plots.

Skin warms up, sheets become heated
Fire burning inside, nothing to feed it
But the flame still goes on, I hardly need it.
Dreams engulf me, no more blood to bleed.

Clouds of mist surround my mind
Leaving me completely blind
In the depths of consciousness I lay sleeping
My eyes closed, I'm still weeping

Fear of losing my own sight
Has caused me to take flight
Eyes closed, run blindly through the night
Unaware of the passing light.
