Let Me Sleep

Numb me down
to the pain
Let me sleep
it all away

Leave me now
in my dreams
Let me die there
peacefully

I don’t belong
in this life
I never fit
let me die

Paul Callus Date: 10/17/2023 6:03:00 AM This is a short yet expressive poem, Cindy. I can 'feel' what you are/were going through. Life is definitely not a bed of roses, but we have to learn to cope and not throw in the towel. May the sun shine more often in your life...bless you. *** Regards // paul Login to Reply Cindy Bahl Date: 10/17/2023 11:24:00 AM Paul, thank you so much for reading my poem and giving me feedback on it.

Karen Jones Date: 10/17/2023 2:12:00 AM This is beautiful but sad. As this is suicide prevention month I hope your heart is lifted my love by penning your poems on pages. I have felt this way and I am not proud to say I acted on it. God intervention and therapy followed. Now I can say I write my dilemma away. Looks as if you do too. Kudos. Well done.
