Somnolent
Go to sleep now
No need to fear old fears
Keep sweet dreams company
Void those harsh pains again
Roll over on your bed
Rest on soft pillow trance
Relax in fast getaway
Let thoughts cease to bite
Forsake this glorious madness
Slip away into slumber
Somnolent moods conspire
To leach out bitter gall
Upon a path beyond this
Make mystic magic moments move
Drowsy dreamy delights dance
Heart heals hurling huge hurts
Such is our sleepy lot
Hollow upon hollow
Slipping away to rest
To rise like the Phoenix once more
