To sleep I go

Praying to Hypnos

That I will sleep through the night

Without my minds fight

Yet in the back of my mind

There is another voice

Praying not to wake

To simply slip into sleep

Never to cry

Never have another choice

Another choice to make

Only sleep

Yet another emerges

Asking for the gods to ignore these intrusive thoughts 

But is it an intruder to my mind?

If this is what I want

To be without another taunt

I only want to sleep

Only to be calm

Without pain

To not hear my brain 

Oh how I wish

To sleep

To rest

To slip

To sleep
