Slumber

The sweet release from the daily stresses of life,

Where you can stay away from hurt and strife. 

Placed in an amazing, beautiful lying state, 

You can always go to sleep, it's never too late. 

Recharged through shut-eye where the pain is gone,

With the freedom to leave whenever you want, even at dawn. 

Covered in soft comfy bed sheets, in a warm snuggly paradise,

Which makes everything feel and seem quite nice. 

It's enchanting with its special charm, its magic effect, 

You feel like you're floating in the air with energy to protect. 

When you wake it's like only five minutes have gone by, 

And when you accidentally sleep in, all you can do is sigh. 

How can you recharge while almost being nowhere mentally, 

Like how everything is put on hold, the world stops momentarily?

That's the sweet release of sleep, away from problems and stress,

But in the morning when you wake, you realise your life's a mess.
