Leave Me Alone

Leave me alone! Yep, that's what I said as you dragged me out of my bed. The night is filled with dreams and I have no desire to escape their scenes. Pull the covers off tickle my feet as I scoff I'm tired and want to sleep and I'm still groggy finishing the images I keep. I was a hero, some marvelous ceation able to free the prisoners of hell and damnation. Let me sleep, just a little bit longer while the visions are fresh in my slumber. Let me be I say leave me alone for today I'm sleeping in unable and unwilling to awake to a madness of little give and a multitude of take. Leave me alone yep, that's what I said and your reply cantankerous as it was rang in my head that I could sleep long after I'm dead. So, up I rose with a shaken start thanks for reality, dear heart.
