Sleep Resistance



To leave something and never come back to you.
Sleep an event I would like to leave too.
Every moment spent with you.
Covered, no visible clue.
What happens when were unconscious unaware without each others existence.
Beings imperative continuum of sleep resistance.
A willful being of helpful chance.
Chosen being of elements complacent defiance.
Leaving an impression shimmers and gone in a flash.
How felt by me the sands solidify only to crash.
To help our story of the distant past.
To escape away unseen by faithful viewers gone past.
Build our walls up so grand.
So that we may have our moment in the sand.
On beaches our comfort we could never strand.
Awake or asleep in dreams we leave hand in hand.
