I wake up to sleep again (Poem 8)
11/04/11 21:52
I sleep til one pm
I lay there eyes closed for twenty minutes
What will I see if I open them?
Nothing
Nothing but the dull grey vortex that is my life
It’s the same old thing day after day.
So I turn back over and go to sleep.
That sweet sleep, the oblivion of living death
Life has no meaning, so I visit that oblivion of living death,
I sleep my life away, for I have no life to waste
Sleep Sleep Sleep
I sleep till one pm
I lay there eyes closed for twenty minutes
What will I see if I open them?
Nothing
Nothing but the dull grey vortex that is my life
Sleep Sleep Sleep
Why be awake in that boredom, and depressing reality of failure.
Why not visit the sweet oblivion of living death
So I do.
I Sleep Sleep Sleep.
