Sleeper

feeling my way through the dark
I can't quite make out the shapes of the night
it's fine I hold my breath and count my steps
I know I haven't woken yet

a flickering mind says I don't belong here
I shut it out till I disappear
I float into another night
float into another night

all the light falls quietly
a dark unknown surrounding
I fold in so lightly
and darkness shines so brightly
I blend into where my body ends
and sleep begins to swell and tumble
I let it pull me under
