Sleep...

i smile...
resting my head on a wet pillow
what will it take
to for sleep to perch on my brow

have I not longed for you enough
have I not hummed me a lullaby
have I not held my arms out
and dreamt of you all this while

what will it take
for sweet slumber to unfurl
to make my eyes heavy with anticipation
to open the doors into my favourite world

Come over me dear sleep
oh don't make me beg you now
its time to run away somewhere far from me
somehow...
