Sleep

Pillow, comfort me;

I lay restless with my stifled apathy



Blanket, keep me warm from the bitter cold;

A draft disperses into my heart



Stuffed bear, stay with me;

You are the one who i can hold onto



Mother, shut the door behind you;

I desiderate the peace that you suppress



Brother, find happy dreams;

You are crawling away from us



Smelly dog, stop being so smelly;

You shed balls of fur as you lie sprawled on the floor



Grandmother, bestow your hindrances aside;

Remember the last time you felt genuine exuberance.



Friends, grant me placidity;

Apprehend, issue after issue, i haven't had time for my own



Love, don't let me fall;

You rush towards me, I am unsure of this revolution



Child, slow down your pace;

This unsteady heartbeat is worrisome, You let her pain become your demons



Musician, quiet down;

The sounds will never leave you



Moon, flaunt your light;

Unclouded, we depend on your presence to bear affliction



girl, come out from behind that wall;

Inclination will defeat you, Excessive attempts to hide are futile



I am weary

Help me surpass this time of mindly chaos

Sleep, render to me
