Why do you hate me,
Mr Sandman?
What did I ever do?
Did I toy with you,
Those times,
I challenged you?
I was in my prime,
And I wanted to,
Respect the moment.
Those kind of occasions,
Are not to be slept through.
But now I wish you'd leave me,
To sleep,
My life is not yours to keep.
What must I do with these empty hours?
How can I get through these days you devour?
Time is for you,
So take me away,
Don't look down and smirk at me,
In this redundant bed in which I lay.
I enjoy your use of rhyme,
I enjoy your use of rhyme, and your ability to gain a lyrical tone in pretty much all of your work. It has a certain... underlying use of understatement throughout it, and yet a certain poise. You seem quite calm when you write as well, I like it.
"Satellite's gone
up to the skies.
Thing like that drive me
out of my mind.
I watched it for a little while:
I love to watch things on TV." - Lou Reed
