Analysis of Inferno



Slow deaths are the precious ones,
as we cannot see what is under them.

The tempo of falling asleep,
during the nights like this is unmatched.

Could it be ?

That my tempo of sleep is just to quick for You.

And I will wake up to quick.

Under my blanket,

looking at my own, unthought dream.

About this poem

Some times, our dreams resemble the death closer than it's nature. In that case, could we be dying everyday in our dreams, just to look at the part of the sky.
