wakeless
Leaving no trace
Wakeless describes sleep that is deep and uninterrupted, without stirring or rousing.
A wakeless sleep is one from which the sleeper does not wake, suggesting profound rest or, in literary contexts, death itself.
She fell into a wakeless slumber after the long journey.
The word is uncommon in everyday speech but appears in poetry and formal prose to evoke complete stillness or oblivion.
