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.

    I'm 14. 
    And I just saw Bruce Springsteen
    Live for the first time. 

    I've loved him and his music since I was 6. 
    I've listened to him religiously since I was 7.

    018751 this was the lunch code I was given 
    My first day of third grade 
    My teacher wrote on my hand 
    With a green marker that smelled like berries 

    018751 this was the passcode for my first email
