Once sleep to me under,
I fell into an everlasting slumber.
I dreamed of better days;
I dreamed of paradise
Wishing to never wake up,
and have to face reality.
I Can Finally Feel Myself Slipping Under

i wrote this out of heartbreak, there was more to the poem but, it wasn't as good as this one stanza.
