Sleep
You sleep, beautiful face
Sleep behind your eyes
Rose drops on your face
Feel them non touching
Rose drops on your skin
Gleaming non touching
You sleep your roselike
Non sleeping sleep
Sleep
When sleep comes
See beauty on your face
When sleep comes
Sleepy daemons hunt my soul
I see the stories in your
Sleepy dreamlike eyes
Come to me in dreams to come
Stretch out dreamlike touch
Sleep
When sleep comes
Collecting my dreams
Dream shimmering beauty
The days went by
The eyes that did not
Touch upon my eyes
Sleep dream my beauty
Sleep with open eyes.
