whatever you do, don’t fall asleep
don’t get pulled into whimsical dreams
that make only promises they don’t keep
stay out of darkness and search for light
chase after sunrises and rainbows
don’t linger under gray storm clouds
I’m standing here waiting for you
to join me in the lavender fields
please stay awake, don’t fall asleep
- Written for dVerse Poetics: I'ts Not That Scary
My inspiration came from this horror movie quote: "Whatever you do, don't fall asleep" by Nancy Thompson, Nightmare on Elm Street (1984).
