Sleep

I slip into a dream
Every time I wake up
Of happiness, sadness,
Love, and lust.
I look at the map
Take a glance at the sun,
And follow the path
To God's glory I run.
Sweet sapphire eyes
That tickle my heart
Don't play coy with me
I loved you right from the start.
Like a rousing whisper
The Ancient of Days' Wind
Whistles in my ears
Even though I have sinned,
"Your cup overflows
If a boat you would sink
Son, give up the dream
And bring all those a drink."
The joy of this life
Is to put it at stake
For an eternal Father
Who keeps you awake.

Author notes

Sometimes, we get so caught up in our own lives and plans that we lose sight of our true purpose in this life.

May the Maker of My Mind be praised by it!

    I plan to revise this poem: please leave constructive criticism!
