The Sacrament Of Sleep
Aug 8, 2017 · 1 min read

Lay my head down
And surrender to
The sacrament of sleep
Where I will perform
My nightly rituals of dream
Ford the flood,
Scale the cliff face,
Wrestle tigers,
Subdue bears,
Seduce the queen
And steal the king’s crown.
In life I float
In sleep I drown
But never die
I rise and rise
A coming tide
One of this nights
My day will arrive.
