Let me dream

Just like everyone has secrets to keep,
I also have my own reasons not to sleep.
Everyday is just like a variant of the day before,
like the similar yet different waves which hit the shore.
There is so much out there, so much to do,
but time is never on our side, it never plays for you.
There is a chaos in which we all stay afloat,
we don't have any control, we have nothing to gloat.
We never found the happiness which is true till the end,
we never found a lie which we won't break no matter how much we bend.
I find sleep as an answer to whatever is happening,
my dreams are safe from whatever life will bring.
I make those dreams, I break them whenever I want to,
I don't have to go through the dreams which I don't want to.
Everything occurs under my wish, changes are under my control,
I don't have to be answerable to anyone except my own soul.
We usually find peace in our dreams, its a familiar place,
even if it all happens in our brain, we never run out of space.
Lately I have not having any dreams, they are getting rare,
my mind wants to dream, but its gasping for a breath of fresh air.
My mind is tired, its too exhausted to think
I am dead , out in a matter of a blink.
When you want to dream and you can't get any,
your mind is still tired of the blank sleep which ain't worth a penny.
Sleep has become a chore instead of something to wait for,
because no matter whenever I sleep, I'm not dreaming anymore.
Let all this be a phase, be it a mirage for whatever it seems,
I don't want to sleep, I want to dream, just let me dream.
