I dream of sleep

I dream of sleep and yearn for death

And hope this joke is fun, for most

These feelings, still, enrage my heart

And drive it to its full extent

The brother suffered one attack

And trust me, I’ll be next, I fear

and when I read it over text

my hopes have disappeared, for good

The Gods are surely next to die

A death more grave than sleepless years

The things I feel are good and bad

And that itself, is good, I guess

and what I’ll do in decades time

is in the wind, but lost in kind

I’ll never learn to trace my steps

I dream of sleep and yearn for death
