Death is a Dream

A Poetry Diary - 12/10/22

Oh Morpheus, God of Dreams:

Why hast Thou forsaken me?

Sandman lay Grit in mine eyes--

&& Yet, I hath not slept..

(Immortal death I've kept.)

///

I've perpetually dreamt amongst

The Living and yet, hath not

Touched Thine lips for

Mine own slumber in weeks!

///

Waking, thrashing, heartbeat skipping.

Why hath Thou forsaken me?

Please take my wake away--

And cure my PTSD.

///

I may no longer count my black sheep.

Hold me and lay me to rest,

Dear Morpheus: my Sandman,

And my Dreams are Yours to keep.
