~mr. Sandman~ Poem by Sinnaminsun Sinnaminsun

Pulling darkness from the skies,
spilling ink within these eyes.
Dreams invading something deep,
Now awakens, once asleep.

By chance and choice you chose to take,
my dream to bend until it breaks.
How many seconds will you tick?
I count each one and hope it's quick.

Like candles never holding flame,
all fire for front but inside tame...
And yes, I view you much the same.

So when you cease your nightmare song,
I'll smile away and sing 'So long'. (still revising this)
