sleep

sleep

A Poem by zeronineight
"

what is it like

"

what is it like to sleep peacefully

to not wake up after four hours

and never get back to sleep

 

to not be haunted by

questions that no longer matter

scenarios that could have been better

business you could have finished sooner

 

what is it like to not be burdened by sleep

to have it come to you naturally

to have it part of your cycle

to not be a highlight of your day

because god f*****g damn it

with the many things you have to prepare

to get seven or eight,

six if you're lucky

 

what is it like

to sleep peacefully
