the luxury of sleep
you say that i am sleeping
and yet; i refuse to dream
to let the twilight dance within my brain
remember faded mem'ries of a slumber so serene
barely could i rouse myself to stand
to walk again about the living

a yearning to view sunlight
just once, from clear blue eyes-
unjaded
           free of this baggage that they bear

dragging  along until the sunset comes and once again i do this thing that you insist is sleeping....
when only i realize that this shadow-game i play is hate and such sorrow overtakes me...
tis and only this is why my eyes can close and i can roll but peaceful sleep will never come...

for i am undeserving.
