ode to sleep
May 5th, 2009 at 10:40am
 
A clusterheads poem about sleep, maybe you can relate,

Ah, sleep,

You used to be so good to me,
You used to be so kind,
You used to take good care of me,
Why did you leave me behind?


You once were the protector,
Of the girl that I once was,
Wrapping your arms around me,
Your embrace,  full of love.


Every night I would surrender,
Trustingly to your will,
Never thinking you would hurt me,
How I wish it were like that still.


Why have you abandoned me?
Why did you have to go?
Are you too weak? Too old? Too tired,
To fight this monstrous foe?


Now I have come to loathe you,
I curse your very name,
You, who invite the demons in,
Who else is there to blame?


I will however, forgive you,
For abandoning me in this fight,
If you would only come back to me,
And hold me through the night.


Oh sleep, please come back to me,
I'm sorry for what I said,
I don't hate, loathe, despise you,
Please take me back to bed.



Sorry if its too sappy,  I have nothing else to do all night, but think sappy thoughts Sad Sad

I really liked that Chris.  It is so true and we can all relate.

Hope the beast leaves you soon.
