What If

What if I should wake
before I fall asleep?
Would I see the light?
Or fall a little too deep?

Fade into the sky?
Or swim across the sea?
Just let everything go?
To be, just be.

I see your star shine
amidst all the screams
your light lights my sky,
a blanket of dreams.

Makes me think and wonder
Am I mine to keep?
Why is it that I
am afraid to fall asleep?

I like the thoughts and questions in the poem. Sometime sleep lead us to the dark or the light. I did like the closing lines. To fear sleep and dreams would be a bad place to be. Thank you for sharing the excellent poetry.

This poem is written very well. Most people question many things like this right before they go to sleep. Overall I think it is very good much like your other writing!!! Good job
