the sleep I finally had

I have had the sleep of damned
the sleep of old and bitter men
the sleep of those who sleep outside
without protection from the rain
the sleep of those who made their own problems
and who have no way to solve them
the sleep of those who have given up hope
but have no choice but to go on
the sleep of those who have lost love
the sleep of those who have lost friends
the sleep that has not come for a long time
but the sleep that is unsatisfying
because when its broken the same problems are still there
the sleep, however, that is given to almost everyone
the sleep that is broken and disturbed
the sleep that is unsatisfying
but which for at least a short motion
is the sleep that sets me free from the harsh universe
for just a few minutes of peace
until that sleep that comes forever
