Sandman

Just let me grasp you,

Just once,

Please,

Please,

Sandman, do I fill you with dread?

-Free me from this night's toil-

Will you take my eyes to your iron nest?

Let them  bleed and fall,

Into the mouths of your children?

Are you a gatekeeper?

Reaper or peacekeeper?

Perhaps we run in circles,

Never to meet until the final sleep.
