Sleep

Warm and comforting
Addicting and enticing
Something you don't want to let go of

You could sink into it
And stay in it for hours
Oblivious to the rest of the world

It's embrace will comfort you
Hold you
Love you
Keep you safe

And when you wake
You'll remember how it feels
And how cold it is without it

Sleep is as close to death as we can get-
Without ever even dying
It's a temporary death

As morbid as that may be
It's somehow comforts me
Knowing what death may feel like

Enjoy your sleep
You never know when it may end-
And the real sleep begins
