dreamless
Sleep sans imagery
Dreamless describes sleep without dreams—or more precisely, sleep without remembered dreams.
A dreamless night suggests deep, uninterrupted rest: He fell into a dreamless sleep.
The word can also describe a person lacking dreams in the aspirational sense: a dreamless existence, though this use is rarer and more literary.
