Ah, Sleep

"Daily Poems" -- so, that was a lie. And so quickly exposed, too!

Well, here's a non-daily poem, then:

Ah, Sleep
My vexing mistress
You tease! You taunt and scorn
Breathe warmth on my neck , then pull away
I can do nothing. Not pursue; not withdraw
Merely wait, and suffer
Waiting
Waiting
Wait...
Your dark glowing touch
Your sly strong embrace
Dissolving in your infinity
Released into your prison
Freed from myself

Until tomorrow
