Trigger Warnings


A Deep Naked Sleep


A deep naked sleep

Somewhere the pain can’t touch

Escape my daily curse

The unrelenting pain

The light that scars my eyes

Like a laser in my eyes

The pain in my head

You see the pain etched in my face

Like daggers stabbing and throbbing

Music a vice of torture

Each note

Each verse

Each tune

Each beat

Each drum

The volume

A daily torture

Of drilling in my head

Constant fatigue

The battle of sleep

My few hours relief

My naked deep sleep

A holiday away

A deep naked sleep

Daylight distraction a poetic write

You might say

The pen mightier than the sword

A deep naked sleep

A little world of relief
