Dreamless sleep

Awake from some weird dream,

I wonder when would I really sleep.

I'm getting afraid of waves,

It doesn't pause but come one after the other,

I close my eyes, seeking inner solace-

I imagine being in a canoe, and see the waves subside-

The vigorous waves transform into tiny ones,

It's not frightening anymore-

But fills soothing calmness,

When the canoe moves-

I feel being moved with a lullaby,

I see earthen lamps floating-

I smile, the darkness is lightly lit-

I'm yet to gather courage to watch the sun in bright…

This moon light makes me cozy;

The canoe still sway in the wave-

I fall into a dreamless sleep-

Floating in a canoe in the rhythm of waves-

Hey birds, don't wake up yet,

Let me complete this dreamless sleep.
