Sleep

Mother earth, open your arms
let me feel their cool soothing embrace
let me climb back into my earthen womb
and sleep once again

let me forget this life i have lived until now
this life where everyone leaves
and love so temporary is a disposable thing
let me feel your balm on the wounds of my heart

let time herself whisper sweet lullabyes into my sleeping ears
let me slumber under waves of summer wheat
I long for darkness, silence, nothing there
except the sweet whisper of wind above
