poem about sleep but with a twist? is sleeping taking the easy way out?
so here i sit up,
you're sleeping.
you have no idea i'm awake,
what's in my head,
sometimes i can't escape it.
sleep just seems to easy.
Why sleep out my escape.
Will i feel better in the morning?
no,
stress.
it follows.
right behind me and infront,
it invades my privacy.
cut it off,
run away,
it's faster.
Do what it wants,
more stress is added.
now a heavier load to run with.
sleeping seems so much easier.
So why can't i take the easier way out?
has stress invaded my sleep as well?
no,
I freely opend my door to stress.
but you see there was an option:
keep the door closed and live inside forever.
stress can't invade the slothful.
Or open the door and take a leap.
leaps alwasy pay off,
they just hurt through the first fall.
The fall sometimes seems like it never ends.
an endless fall.
to where?
to a stress free place?
or will i just be gaining more?
sleep.
it's easier,
but the easy ways never lasts long enough.
