Soon my mind will fade

In this place where shadows grow

Lo, the time has come for buried dreams to leave the shade

Encroached on days where sorrows flow

Nothing but rest can soothe this pain

Cradled in wool where comfort reigns

Eclectic dreams will stir my night until I wake and my soul bellows
