What About Sleep?

  

You expect me to sleep?

After years so restless,

Now everyday breathless,

Moments dreamier,

Where’s the good in sleep?

You mean to tell me stop?

But how does one,

Slow a beating heart,

Calm a fiendish chase,

Stop me from you?

I don’t know what they told,

They never knew me well,

Everything in its time,

Whatever you do,

Don’t tell me about sleep.
