Sleep

Sleep is for those who have given up

Sleep is for those who want the day to end

Sleep is for those not willing to see what the night can hold


But I


I will hear the quiet tranquility

I will see the stars as they shine above

And I will see the dawning of a new day

Nice poem!

Reminds me of this ..... https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xs-p1oEvuGg

Translated Lyrics:

None shall sleep,
None shall sleep!
Even you, oh Princess,
In your cold room,
Watch the stars,
That tremble with love
And with hope.
But my secret is hidden within me,
My name no one shall know,
No... no...
On your mouth, I will tell it,
When the light shines.
And my kiss will dissolve the silence that makes you mine!
(No one will know his name and we must, alas, die.)
Vanish, o night!
Set, stars! Set, stars!
At dawn, I will win!
I will win!
I will win!

That's a charming little poem _mae365. I'm afraid I'm definitely a sleeper, though.

When I was a child I wished my job was sleeping. Now as an adult I stay up mpst nights reading and star gazing at night.
