Sleep

It is my deepest
wish right now
to sleep.
To cast aside
the weary,
the relentless
buzz and itch
of wakefulness.
My lacking brain
is sleep deprived
and yearning
to be free
from stimulation.
Susceptible
to would haves
could haves
but I didn't,
when it should be 
streaming
through a hazy
field of dreamers.
Thoughts without
direction
cause
or impact
played out
colourful 
and vivid
on the back drop
of my eyelids-
it's all
I wish to see,
but alas sweet sleep
escapes
from me.
