But, I must sleep now.

Crimson spread on white flight
Heavy with ashes of lost light;

An attempt of memories taking a bow,
Alas! But, I must sleep now.

Golden wings soaring high

Against a burnt laze sky;

Moments racing to fulfill their vow
Sadly! But I must sleep now.

Wine tossed across cotton clouds

Hint of dark mirroring muffled forest sounds;

A fresh lease to time dragging pictures in tow

Unwillingly so! But I must sleep now.

Silence painting corners of dark

Sharp as emotions unveiled stark;

Diving into a known abyss, sans knowledge how

Drowning with a lost heavy heart, I must sleep now.
