A drowsy droop of the eyes,
Until they remain closed,
Still awake,
Thoughts slip from focus,
Breathing slows,
Drifting in and out,
Like the tide as it creeps up the shore,
Gently letting go of awareness,
Like sand slipping through fingers,
Until,
Silently,
Softly,
Sinking,
From the shallows,
Into deep,
Sleep.
This is lovely, actually I really need a nap at the moment lol. But I have to point out, on the first line: A drowsy drop of the eyes, I think you meant to write droop Droop: verb 1. bend or hang downward limply. a long black cloak drooped from his shoulders synonyms: hang (down) , dangle, sag, flop

I would like to translate this poem
Thanks for reading Nika- it turns out there were two errors in the poem both of which I have corrected. I must have been napping whilst submitting! I'd hoped the poem would capture some of that drifting feeling before sleep, and maybe it had a little influence on your nap needing mood
