Sleep

It's been a while
Since tangible notions
Have reached my mind.
It's been a while
Since colours have been coherent.

I think I enjoy this state
Much more
For hazy nights and soft lights
Are warmer than before.

If I sleep please do not wake me;
I'll be alive somewhere else
Where the noise isn't so
Loud
And
Sharp
Blades cutting through consciousness.

I'm sorry I couldn't wake.
