Sea Of Eternal Sleep I lie awake and dream. A sea of darkness creeps over my body. Waves of black slumber wash into my head flooding my mind with cold fatigue. I float out into vast emptiness. I look back to see myself, lying on the sands of reality; except it's not me. It's not me anymore, it's just a shell. A shell completely vacuous. Frozen by death's touch. My shell is surrendured to the earth, presented in a simple wooden box. Friends grieve and say goodbye I'll see them soon. Not in this world but in the next. I hope they're not late! People dressed in black stand along the shore. They cry and I myself begin to cry. But I cry tears of joy and relief, for I have been set free, from my empty, hopeless, dreamless #life; where happiness was welcome, but never came. I now travel to my new world. It's called Hell, but I shall call it Heaven. This world yields dark hopes and evil dreams. Happiness will still be welcome and I'm sure it will come. Black and cold, but it will come. I lie awake and dream. (My tears of joy and relief have passed) Waiting to reach the place which will be my new home. A place which can only be reached on- the Sea of Eternal Sleep.
