I just want to sleep...
and never again
awaken
in the fields of my past.
To never notice why
my heart
stays beating
in slow-motion,
I just want to snuggle
among the bedsheets,
cool and deep.
Drowning in the waves
of wrinkles,
I don't want to sleep...
I just want to breathe
once more,
without inhaling poison.
To suck the life
from brutal skies,
I'll be happy in ascension.

Oh, omit 'and' from the beginning of your sentence. 'and' should never go at the beginning because it's unnecessary.
I really like this piece. Except for the only correction I had to make, it's a great piece. Lovely work.
To be honest, though, in poetry (and only in poetry) when I do begin new sentences, I do use "and" to start it off quite a bit. I do know, as far as grammar goes, it shouldn't be used to begin a sentence, but I do it on purpose. It's a sort of continuation of thoughts for me. In writing I write exactly what I feel and what comes to me, and sometimes leaving out something that might constitute bad grammar is a big sacrifice. For myself, anyway.
Anyway, I really, really appreciate your input, and thank you so much for commenting and the fav!
Well, the only problem with the word 'and' is that it does take away from a piece. 'and' becomes overdone.
Well yes it does take away from the work. It looks unprofessional and it's very distracting from the words that really count. I see how you set up your poetry and that 'and' isn't really at the beginning, but that sentence just doesn't need the word. It as if you've watered down your poem with unnecessary words that are just distracting. All they add is girth to the piece, nothing else.
well, it's OK, not everybody's supposed to feel...cause while you're real, you feel so unreal...
