I love this poem. Everything you've done here is wonderful! There are so many things I enjoy about it.
First of all, the structure works so well! The one word lines and the simplicity add to the tone beautifully. As I read down the length of this poem I feel as though I'm descending from wakefulness into the land of dreams.
I also love your use of tense, "falling" "smiling" "fading" "receding" "closing" "opening". It makes me feel as though this poem is happening to me as I read it!
I dug your idea of "mind closing/ eyes/ opening" "thought...no longer needed". That's a very cool idea that you captured really well.
I could go on and on about this one. This is definitely one of my favorite peices you've done.
Ahh. Nicely done!
