Just to be seen proud
Unforgiven days blurred by a drunken shout
“ is there a way out?!!”
trapped in places I’ve already been
forgotten dreams, never pretend
drown my mistakes in a place where I can swim
regretfully sure of all misfortune
to be more than me
greater than my unrelenting poison…..”the dream”
find grace, taken in by a forgiving ocean wave
all are punished
still searching for something
tired and running fast
time to turn accept my demons, embrace the past
find my way to sleep
avoid falling to deep
close my eyes, wander off to my relief
holding close every second within that dream
smile a little longer, laugh a little harder, enjoy my own grin
cause my eyes will open in the morning and I know…..
tomorrow I’ll have to start all over again.
