Elucidating Questions

I wonder if when I sleep I am transported to a different place where sleep doesn’t happen or time isn’t the same

The hours of time that I sleep do not add up to rest in my head

Oh I was in bed

And my heart said I was near dead

As it does when you dream

The watch knows it reads it for me

But it just ignores me in those hours caught between dream and awake I feel like I spend hours lying awake

I spend years dreaming

But my eyes they are still tired

And my bones they are still heavy

My muscles they are still tight

My mind it is still weary

But I shut my eyes and I open them again and the night has fallen and the light has won

Or as they say

My section of the earth has turned back to the sun

Which has turned many times since I last saw him I always say hello

But I’m still tired

Where did sleep go?

And the hours they passed

Take up so much time

But I feel so weak

That I wish I was dying
