“A Narcoleptical Pondering”
I wish I could sleep forever
and put away
the endeavor,
That is my life.
I wish I could dream for eternity,
holding on
to all that is dear to me;
forever.
The good dreams I could see,
the love
never to be;
forever
To the bad dreams I would smile.
I wouldn’t mind,
I have the guile;
forever
Then I wouldn’t have to be sad.
I wouldn’t have to
be mad;
forever.
It would all be in dreams.
No tears, or
broken seams;
forever
I could make the worl’
mine, in an
endless swirl;
forever
But someday, I’d have to wake,
rub the sleep from my life
The world I’d have to take;
forever.
Or until I fall asleep once more;
or until I fall asleep forever.
