Sleep loosens

Sleep loosens knotted threads of sorrow,
opens bandages of worry,
bathes the sore ideas
soothes festering wounds of the spirit,
massages all senses, repairs soul's harmony.

Sleep seals the tired eyes of trouble,
maintains energy levels,
comforts the unloved,
calms the mistreated, the misjudged,
buries the burden of previous days.

Sleep heals
rich and poor alike.
Sleep, the restorer of life.
