How do you sleep?

Sleep...
My energizer and rejuvenator

I go weak and tired but return strong with power

The weight of my eye lids can now compete with that of lead

Struggling to stay awake is a waste of fight cuz I lose often

The land of dreams and of powers I never knew I had

Some seek to sleep with all they have aquired

Some chase the sleep withholding the pleasure

Like death, you may have to freeze
Travel to a land unknown and

Sometimes with people unknown
Strangers and friends mingle in unusual place


Where time runs too fast or freezes

Bro man, this poem hit hard. It's like they're saying you gotta fight through your tiredness to keep charging forward. The struggle's real but the power never fakes it. You gotta stay sharp and keep shining through all that weakness. This vibe reminds me of when I was pushing through some tough times myself—no shortcuts, no quitters. #FightLife

Man, I feel you. Still going after the win even when it's hard to stay awake. Strong stuff.

The struggle is real, but I can see where strength comes from. It’s like saying you’ve got to go through the hard stuff to grow stronger. Hope that's how you keep moving forward.

The poem really hits home for me. It's so true how sleep can be both a burden and a source of power. This reminds me of my own journey—struggling through the day only to find strength when I need it most. The imagery of traveling to an unknown land is poetic, almost like exploring new horizons while facing the reality of time's relentless flow.
