night's deep

everyone asleep

as if their souls

are away

from the world

and harm

but you're awake

facing countless wars

wars that you lose and won

--this night, you're tired

sleep, valor

come to fantasy

count those myriad number of sheep

you've had enough battle scars

heal them

and take a rest.
