The point of no return

0 posted 2004-07-17 11:56 PM



I wake to sleep
And in sleeping find
That life is an illusion
To keep the truth
From seeping out
And shattering our delusions

I withdraw into the sanity
Of my own little head
Where up is down, and down is up.
The ground is black,
the sky is red

I watch myself spinning
Forever down
Like I’m behind the glass.
I’m looking in, I’m yelling “Stop!”
In a pool of lies, I’m about to drown.

I wake to sleep
And in sleeping find
That life is an illusion
To keep the truth
From seeping out
And shattering our delusions

Thanks.  I really like your stuff too.  Course, I don't usually post about anyone else's because I feel like an idiot when I can't seem to figure out what to say. Anyways, thanks again.

Absolutely breathtaking...I actually don't know what to say!  It was...amazing!  Words don't seem to come to fruition with this poem.  I believe I am still in a trance of awakened slumber with dreams of reality that are emitted from this poem.  Awesome read!

this was soo... amazing.
Totally brilliant,
and the chorus, was so true.
I really loved this poem.
It sounded sort of like a song too.

i have thought this many a times. in fact i too have a poem about my own little world. because i dont belive in only one reality. gone is my world is the title of the poem. but i think you caught what i was feeling in a better way.

"alone yet unafraid to hurt. i go through every day trying to find my way. where is the light. where is my fight. is this how it ends?"
