Mr.Sandman
Bring a lullaby to me
Wrap me in bedsheets
Of notes labeled p
I feel I can’t flow
Like water in a stream
Or float endlessly
Like in a dream
Mr.Sandman
Let music be my escape
For when all I see
Are clouds of gray
Decrescendo my thoughts
As I try and fade away
Dreaming of dancers
And of sunnier days

Hi all! Late update, oops! I started up classes again recently and I’ve been super distracted! I’m taking online courses and I totally forgot so now I’m a week behind, which, yikes. Wish me luck! This is an old poem I wrote inspired by that one song that goes like Oh Mr. Sandman, bring me a dream, show me a world that I’ve never seen, and also the fact that I can never fall asleep when I want to! Honestly melatonin has been a life saver, but it gives me such creepy dreams, I hate taking it.
