Timeless Sleep, Lesson From Heaven

The desire of every being created
Once the night is ripe and day gone
To refresh and to rejuvenate
The wearied soul each day spent

And the life energy restores
For those gifted to benefit
And many lessons it beholds
As we behold the daily journey

At night time when sleep begins
To unknown land in a dead body
Alone each must travel and expand  
Alas, the tethered must stay awake

Showing the strategy for the mission
The only mission, which is in the life
As the crowd abhors heaven forever
The solo assail beyond their bounds

For the man that is learned in the act
He is free and travels safe and fast
Such man has conquered death
In immortality he can only dwel
