 Sleep eludes me like a lover,

A lover that but exists in dreams,

Dreams that bewitch sense,

A fence that holds those who sin.

Skin, that wrinkles, in wait of love and

Night, that lights in dire dove.

Dove that flew around my dreams,

Dreams of lovers, and shrewd means.

Means to wish a pause in learn,

And here I wish, my sleep return.
