When (do) I Sleep

Uncategorized 1 Minute

Eyes so heavy

Sandbag weight

Sandman waits

To sprinkle down

. . .

Then they shut

Fresh hell

Flesh halls

Horror the instant I sleep

. . .

Eyes fly open

Gasping breath

Grasping bed

My whole body trembling

. . .

When am I sleeping

Eyes always open

Lies hallways often

Awaiting my return

      1. You are super lucky, my love. I am glad you have not had these more often… once is enough.

        This was really well done 🖤🖤🖤
