Sleeping

Hide with me beneath slumber skies
Where the monsters of the waking world can’t find
Stay with me lost in a dreamland
A secret for the lonely and dismayed

Here no one will judge you
Or tell you to just go away
No one will beat and hurt you
You have a place to run away

One day you’ll stay to long
The drugs will not fade
Then we can stay forever in heaven
Maybe that days today

  • I really like what you did with this prompt.

    Favorite lines:

    Here no one will judge you
    Or tell you to just go away
    No one will beat and hurt you
    You have a place to run away

    The rhyme is nice there, good write, you did very well.

    I like this, it's reminiscent of the tranquilly that makes dreaming worth sleeping the day away.
    Seems weird to dream of sleeping forever.
