Sleeping Sleeping

I am Sleeping Sleeping.

I shall never wake.

THIS is the truth.

I shall never wake because
I do not ever want this wonderful dream of life to end.

To wake is to die.
I do not want you to die.

I do not have a life of my own
I merely dream up yours.

I am sorry if your life has been hard,
just keep rowing that boat and don’t worry
it may get better, but I’m not sure.
All I know is that----

I am Sleeping Sleeping.
I shall never wake.

….or will I?
