Poem: "What Do You Think About Before You Go to Sleep?"

What do you think about before you go to sleep?
What do you think about before you go to sleep?
I asked you first.
I asked you first like so many times.
But all I got were nursery rhymes
A cat’s cradle of truths and lies
Laughter canned and lame laugh lines. 
All I got were nursery rhymes.
What do you think about when you close your eyes?
A veritable world of beautiful dreams
I would have liked to have seen 
With you but I 
Was only given nursery rhymes.
