I Don't Want to Sleep

I don’t want to sleep.

I don’t want to dream of you.

I want to lay down,

Not tormented by memories,

Regrets and what-ifs.

I just want to sleep so deeply,

That my mind forgets to dream,

And the images flashing across my mind vanish

Into the blackness of the void.

I would rather be empty

Than half-full of unfulfilled desires.
