Sleep

I sleep
Enfolded in peace
The agony and pain
Disappear!
The burning
The sorrow
The guilt
The flame
Enfolded in peace

I wake
Entranced by life
Remembering the guilt
Inside
Death before sleep
And now
Entranced by life

I try to rise
Hoping
The strength within
Helps me
Soar
High in the sky
Hoping!
