Sleep is sweet and soft, however hard at the same time. Most of the time, it's harder than it is soft. There's a descent through heavy, thick layers of fog and sometimes you get stuck in between, where vibrations run through you, holding you captive. It's a delightfully interesting sensation, but it's not sleep. Sometimes I run there on my own accord, for my curiosity has been stricken.

Odyssey to Slumber
I feel In a fog When I walk down the hall All the things I see are there, But only half there to me. The light is too bright. I pass things I see things I get to places, But my head feels half numb And my  forehead feels heavy - My legs still know how to walk though, So I continue to float.

I feel
Energy, Here it is not. I struggle to Keep my eyelids from touching, And to focus on the information around me. I am the old cat Who can't remember That it's in the process of being fed. Read the same sentence again And again. I only feel awake when the Moon and stars are high, While the world around me buzzes My eyes cross and blur.
