Sleep

I.L.W.L

Sleep tempts me
So warm and comfortable

I am close to falling unconscious
But I won’t allow myself to be enveloped by it

Dreams are temporary perfection
Tranquility and meaning

Which once attached will be ripped from me like a plaster

Leaving nothing but the cold sting of reality

Because I must wake up to a nightmare
