Oh Precious Sleep

by Jenn   Jul 8, 2006


There once was a night
That I fell off my bed
And when I hit the floor
I awoke in slight pain
Frightful that it
Should happen again
I made sleep on the
Wings of an angel
Every night I would drop
Into an eternal abyss
Flying over the ground
So far out of reach

But to every dream
It's inevitable nightmare
For soon I was robbed
Of my golden sleep
I'd trip over chairs and
Tumble down stairs
Until being awake
Meant living in Hell

My eyes are swollen
A hammer at my head
Trying to survive
As I stare at the bed
On the hardwood floor
Begging to fall to fall
To fall to fall to

Oh precious sleep
