sleep
2001-11-20 @ 1:11 p.m.
i took my remeron too late and the guardians at the gates of sleep wouldn't let me in. not having anything to do with the remeron. they said i would disturb the other sleeping souls, told me i couldn't run screaming through the garden of sleep. they said they'd call for me when i was ready. i jumped out of bed, with tasks in mind, to work on before i drifted up to the garden of sleep. i must, i thought, i simply must make a mixtape now! there's a tape a started making for someone, then stopped. i picked it back up a few months a go and added more songs for myself. now, this tape is the soundtrack for the new era of me. so you see, i had to get started, planning songs, arrangement. i made it through a few songs, until i started feeling the pull from my body to relax into a restful slumber. the pull when my cells are ready to retire and rejuvenate. when my mind has had enough whirling for one day. i don't always like to journey alone into the garden of sleep. sometimes, i like music for the road or thoughts to carry me along the way. so i drifted off, with david gray singing in the background. and as arrived, the guardian at the gate this time smiled and soundlessly open the gates, allowing me to enter. sleep.
