Analysis of Slumber



In your slumber things come and go
All things seen all we know
Fears of the mind, heart, and soul
Some real, some hard, hard to let go
Deep in our minds where all things grow
life we have is ours to let glow
Not All bad, not all good, in our minds eye they will grow
So, Fear not the night when terror may flow
For the day is dawning, night is laid low
Open your eyes and see the sun glow
Too warm the mind's eye, heart, and soul
