Image for the poem sleep forever

sleep forever

Arrest myself
get my ass back in bed
There’s nothing
out there to see.
You’ve already seen it.
Where were you gonna go?
You have no friends.
Where were ya gonna go?
You have no friends.
Arrest my head,
give myself a chance to think
Arrest myself
go back to bed and sleep
Cuz i wanna sleep forever,
I wanna dream deep.
Cuz I wanna lock away my thoughts
Don’t make me see them.


Cuz I want to sleep forever
and I want to forgive myself
For my past transgressions,
and things I hope happen to people.
But what do I know?
What I wanna do
Is sleep forever
Drift like leaves
Miles away
Like birds,
glinting shards
Shimmering in the Sun.
Forget that I've been asleep.
