Isle of sleep

I donโ€™t feel like myself tonight,
Aches and pains, things arenโ€™t right,
I donโ€™t feel like Iโ€™ve been sleeping,
For at night my mind goes creeping,
Away to another world,
To the Isle of Sleepโ€™s black sand shores,
Where pits lay open like gaping maws,
And ground vents breath a smoky haze,
Where fire topped trees all stand a blaze,
Where is it that my sleeping mind goes,
Every night my curiosity grows,
Wherever it is the dreams donโ€™t share,
Am I visiting hell,
Who can tell,
Perhaps Iโ€™m already there.
