sleep away

Beyond me
Far away
A depth that I cant feel
Nothing is easy
Lost in sleep
Awake in dreams
Layers covering me
Coveting what I need
But it evades me
Nothing wakes me
Not for no man
Not for no sleep
Dying and empty
I bleed
And relish envy
For emotion has raided me
Like a closet
As sharp as a knife with sheen
Covered in a sleeve
I live and die
With one thought in mind
The thought of sleep
