Mixed feelings.
Pre-determined destinations,
outcomes calculated in my head.
The sum of the matter is, never what I imagine.
I can't help but;
think instead of sleep, constant insomnia.
Illusions and dreams, relentless paranoia.
I keep pasting memories of the past,
with assumed occurances of the future.
I live within a fantasy world.
I'm blind to the reality,
always hopeing it will get better.
I've lodged my hopes between the letters of never.
Satisfaction is a term without meaning.
And I hold to this empty feeling,
ignoring the beauty around me.
I walk the imagined streets within my head..
Searching for a place, a proper answer,
but the sum of the matter...
is always endless digets leading off to nowhere.
