Slumber

by @genisis-corbett

I come and go Like a storm Like a slumbering dragon Like a eclipse So I sleep it off I sleep away the pain and become numb I sleep away the worry until it becomes lucid And I sleep away the thought of love and instead of nightmares I'm embraced with the drowning sweetness of the void My slumber is not peaceful nor is it kind but it keeps me away from the mirror Away from the looks And the monster I call myself The void can sweep me away as they pretend to care thus He the void keeps me quiet and chained
