Sleep
Sleep,
Sleepless is your mind.
Limitless is what you will find.
Friend, sister, mother
I am no devotee
But I know dreams
They are better than screams.
Depart from detour
And it's even four
Rest,
You are in no detention
Sleep,
You are no companion of oppression
Skip that repression
I beseech you,
For what is in the way is salutary.
Darling, my brother, my father.
Sleep,
And let the worries be mortal
And even lethal.
