Sleep

A pill that dissolves reality into dreams
calm, with the  needle  of life, staring  down at you
no mirrors or  reflections
just the  dreams of accomplishments
the  dreamlike stance 
closed eyes, with  caressing thoughts
no pain
just calm
no fears,mistakes, or  reality biting 
just the closed eyes of dreams
relaxed  visions that awaken us

This was the other write that involved a "pill" amongst the entries and I'm just really impressed with how you've described sleep in this one, it's so true--and your last line was the perfect way to end this--congrats on being in my winners' list, fago!! --nikko :)
