Let me sleep

The day has had too much of me,
so please leave me to sleep.
The gravity of the world was tiring,
so let me slip in deep.
The love was aggressive,
is always the way.
Days were not passive;
I've no more left to give.
So please just let me sleep.

Bones are weak and screaming stop,
so let me lay my head.
My eyes are weighed with iron lashes,
so let me sink in bed.
The dark smiles and welcomes me,
I want to stay forever.
Oceans of serenity,
wash the day away from me,
don't wake me, let me be.
