Analysis of To Deep In Sleep To Stop Thinking

Jasmin Jay 2004 (Riverside California)



In the land of dreams in which I rest
The thoughts in my brain never to sleep
The ideas of my conscience test
The last bit of sanity I hold to
At last, my mind has gone too deep
So deep into the thoughts in which I lay
Never to surface come the day
So much to think in the void I call sense
What will I do when I can no longer will my wit to be lucid
