The Beauty Of Being Asleep
There’s a certain beauty
To being asleep…
One no painting,
No story
Could ever capture.
_Maybe it’s the_
_Boundless horizons of dreaming…_
Hills of ice cream
Reaching as high as
The cotton candy clouds…
Creatures unheard of
In the world of
The awake.
You can do things
You can’t do when
Awake…
_Dreams are gorgeous,_
_Magical._
_Maybe it’s the_
_Silence…_
When you’re sleeping,
You lose
Awareness,
Sometimes you don’t even hear
Your alarm beeping.
Sleeping in silence,
Left with your own thoughts,
You have time
To focus on
_You_.
_The silence is comforting._

_Maybe it’s the_
_Warmth and safety of your bed._
The comforting feeling
Of your head on your pillow,
The softness
Of it all.
The loving embrace
Of a favorite blanket,
A feeling of
Nostalgia and
Safety.
__
_A bed can be_
_A safe haven…_
There’s so much
Beauty
In being asleep,
Beauty
That can’t be rivaled.
_I guess that’s why they call it_
_Beauty sleep… _
