I am dark black nothingness I am the stuff dreams are made of I sneak up on you when you are weak and tired I snatch you away from reality if for only a few hours before you suddenly escape weary from your journey home I am not always bad, I bring you strength and energy I am the lover that comforts you through the night I hold you in my arms and disappear like a ghost when the morning comes but I am always here with you I am always ready to abduct you from this time-consumed world You should thank me You couldn't live the same without me engulfing and consuming your body every night; physically and emotionally I am your friend I can be your enemy I am sleep
Reason for writing:
I love sleep.
I just wrote it for fun!
