Dreamless Night
Alone in my own head
as I rest tonight
ins and outs of breathing
calm me while I lose sight
sight of reality, morals, and ethics
family, friends
good and bad
This silent but hectic fading feel
pulls me, I'm losing track of all that is real
and I fall sleep when it's all gone
noise fades away like a closing song
and in the state, I know not what I feel
if that is I feel at all
anticpating my sluggish awake
knowing if I dreamed it's all gone
emptied heads stay empty long.
