Sleep slip
through my eyes
To hide
under my head rest
I’ve waited
for shadows to disappear
For the
dreams I long to bear
But like
hide and seek
I play to
seek sleep and have dreams
Sleep slip
through my head rest
To hide
under my mattress
I’ve waited
to lay my bed
For the
dreams I long to bear
But like children
on a swing
I roll from
right to left to seek sleep and have dreams
Sleep slip
through my mattress
And flew to
the rooftop
I’ve waited
to set my windows free
For the
dreams I long to bear
But like a
cargo just from oversea
I count
boxes demarcating ceiling to seek sleep and have dreams
Take my
thoughts and give me dreams
Thoughts may
be wrong, dreams are always not
Tired of
hide and seek and the way I swing
I’ve let the
windows free, please come in with the breeze
Take these
thoughts from me, come with the dream you promised
