To Sleep

And now as I prepare to surrender to rest,

The shoots of dreams start to show,

The promise of color,

The assurance of wonder,

The hint of the other world.
Or simply a white lie, tempting nonetheless...
And like a painter ready with a view in sight
and an image in mind,

I sort my palette of thoughts
as my eyelids lay the first strokes
on the void of this black canvas of Sleep.

(Footnote: I don't know why I put that in the form of a poem :)
