morpheus


Hold me tonight, Greek god of dreams
You lie on an ebony bed in a dimly-lit cave,
Surrounded by poppy flowers.
guilty for leading my unconscious mind,
or giving nature to the beings which dwell in my dreams.
Could’ve been called Mr. Sandman
Sprinkling magic sand when I was only a child
gloomy reaper holding an hourglass and scythe.
