Sleep

Falling asleep was always easy,
count to three and I'd be out like a light,
and sleeping soundly as well, in that place
of serenity, safety and healing.

Now, my deepest thoughts and worries
come into the forefront of my mind
as I lay my head upon the pillow,
my soul bearing itself upon me,
and life is not a dream.
