My eyes are heavy

My eyes are heavy and full of pain
The sleep I desire is just beyond this day  
My head is pounding, awaiting    
The final kiss  
Of tender release  
From this endless emptiness  
The thoughts in my mind feel meaningless  
My heart seems set apart from the Divine    
Perception is a dream, a lie  
Relief is when I no longer struggle to meet my needs    
As everything is exactly as it should be  
If I do not perceive anything, there is only unity  
It cannot be wrong or right  
It is not dark or light  
Good or bad,  truth or lies
Reality is at ease
The relief of discerning peace
Breathe in, the lights go dim
Exhale and shadows bend
Close my sleepy eyes    
Nothing has to matter, nothing has to stay  
Fly away at the end of this day  
Weary from life as a human being  
My thoughts can leave me,    
and float up to the ceiling.
