Sleep Poem by Mirabai

Sleep

Rating: 2.9

Sleep has not visited me the whole night,
Will the dawn ever come?
O my companion,
Once I awoke with a start from a dream.
Now the remembrance from that vision
Never fades.
My life is ebbing as I choke and sigh,
When will the Lord of the Afflicted come
I have lost my senses and gone mad,
But the Lord knows my secret.
He who deals out life and death
Knows the secret of Mira's pain.

The devotion to the divine is also a part of the uncoscious mind along with the conscious. This is a product of utmost and unquestioning devotion.
