Free Falling

Sweet calming respite
Tempts me so
Cool, freshly pressed sheets
A fluffy pillow
Seduction
Promising relief
Just lay your head down
Close your eyes
A nap will be good
My thoughts taper off
Sweet, sweet sleep
Suddenly dropping
I’m out of control
Paralyzed
Spinning and sinking
Racing through all time
Free falling
Lower and lower
Rock bottom in sight
Sudden shock
And a hypnic jerk
