Sleep

poem by: Edgy Boiii
Written on Jan 21, 2020

Sleep an eternity of life
Yet to live with your eyes closed
Their problem to them unknown
Until they find their hidden strife 
Some will wish to see yet they won't
For awakening can not be taught

We view the world sometimes with our eyes closed. Blinding us about our problems, by failure to confront them. Strife is hidden and concealed. People may wish for their own" awakening but it can not be taught. Profound and brief poem with an earnest message.
