Delta waves (Poem)

Sleep doesn't come naturally, I fight it at every step

Night after night passes, I still haven't slept 


Even in the bright day, the world just passes me by 

I don't want to see any of it, not even this sky


Maybe if I have to close my eyes 

It should probably be for forever

I can't stand any more of the lies

I look at myself and I just want to sever

Every part of me


I should sleep deeply 

Ever still, completely


If I could face the waking world 

I would 


If I could find myself in her arms again

I wouldn't mind


She sleeps so naturally, never opening her eyes

I wouldn't mind joining her either


I've stood on the ground where she rests now

I still remember the day I visited and made my vow


I can't join her yet, in the sleeping world

Half and half and half and half, I won't unfurl 

Me and myself and her and her 


You, whom I loved and hated

Taught me to let it go

But my feelings haven't abated


I imagine sleep

I want to die

I think to live

I need to cry 


I yearn to love

I dream to fly 

I miss you

I can't say goodbye 


But I'm still here

Under this sky
