Thank you, Anni. Maybe I'm a masochist because I do like making things difficult for myself. I considered rhyming each line as well, but that was a bridge too far. Perhaps next time...
Please, don't wake me
No, don't shake me
Leave me where I am
I'm only sleeping
John Lennon/Paul McCartney
Don’t honk if I look sleepy,
I know it may seem creepy,
but much depends on why
I let the world pass by,
and if I’d rather slumber,
my senses unencumbered,
reality has proved so vile,
and dreams are more my style.
