He sleeps <br />Never wakes up <br />His closed eyes are carved. <br /> <br />He dreams <br />Never wakes up <br />His eyes <br />His blanket <br />Wet. <br /> <br />His smile only remembers to frown <br />In his shivering sweat he drowns. <br /> <br />His blanket chains him <br />His feet shackled <br />His body paralysed <br />He cannot know <br />But cannot not feel. <br /> <br />From his sleep <br />He cannot wake <br />He doesn’t know how <br />He doesn’t know why.<br /><br />Mehreen Mujeeb<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/lullaby-48/
