Sleep
It is night that brings most
dread
Body tired, day is spent
All the possibilities
That will never see daylight
again
If this is all there is
Why do I even want to wake
The daily frustration of
hours wasted
Now just haunting memories
If this is all there is
There is no need for morning
It only comes to mock my
Hope of more to come
But there is more … much
more
Today was just a taste
Bitter or sweet
It is only a lesson learned
The hope of something more
Causes the sun to rise
To introduce the day
That could bring more to my
world
There is more, because of
THAT day
When all that was lost
Died once for all
To bring life forevermore
So now each day has promise
That Life will be found
Where before there was dread
Now joy
Night still comes
So morning can bring
anticipation
Of finding that
Which is seeking after me
So sleep …
