Sleep

I want to sleep; 

I want to sleep with the thought of peace in my mind. 

Instead of the thoughts always running through my mind, 

Instead of worry I yearn for wonder. 

 

I want to sleep with the thought of curiosity; 

Like the days of the past years, 

Years I can’t go back for but I dream of when I sleep. 

 

My dreams consist of what I wish my life was. 

 

I want to go to sleep; 

But I wish to sleep forever, 

Because when I sleep I dream, and when I dream;

I finally get to live.

    This is an empty house, 
    A house that's lost its soul. 
    The laughter and joy that once echoed through it, 
    Faded away with time and age. 

  • Seasons

    Summer is going fast, 
    As the nights grow colder. 

    Summer came and went, 
    And took with it that feeling. 

    Fall brings sorrow, 
    It reminds you that time doesn't stop.
