Sleep

By scribble_scribe

Sleep calls to me with haunting promises of fulfilled dreams and reached goals.
Paradise!
Warmth and comfort, a haven in the cold bitter loneliness that is night.
Sleep calls to me with quiet exceptance,
peaceful presence and silent moments.
Heaven!
Relaxing and refreshing,
a retreat from the cruel moments of insanity that is life.
Sleep calls to me with tenticles stings of burning desire.
I long for it's calm.
I crave it's security.
I need it's respite.
Sleep calls to me with gentle reassurance.
Safe at last.
Safe in the arms of blissful sleep.
