I wake up and what a surprise
I get to see the sunrise
Yet another day
To go away
The world so kind and giving
But no one’s around
Not even a sound
My dream begins to fade
To my throat a blade
Time to end all my frustrations
Happiness is only found in our imaginations
My life has been a living hell
To the floor the knife fell
I open my eyes
My dream dies
It seems one minute I’m flying high
The next I’m falling through the sky
My feelings I hide
But I’m crying inside
No one knows
Because it never shows
I try to keep a smiling face
Even though it seems out of place
I feel I’m on the verge of death
And nothing is left
I feel confused
I feel used
The river is flowing
The wind is blowing
But I have no will
I remain still
Stuck between dream and reality
Control is out of my ability
It took me awhile but now I realize
The world takes my happiness and begins to tantalize
There’s no complication
To my explanation
I’m not making any sense
Between me and my happiness is a fence
My body living but dead
Spinning is my head
I’m very sapient
Though that’s not very salient
A voice begins to call
As I begin to fall
I’ve been caught
To myself I thought
I’m being destroyed by my own dreams
Or that’s the way it seems
I cry and shout
But there’s no way out
I want to go
But I know
This all must be fake
I need to awake
Day and night turns
The fire burns
And like an icy breeze
My mind begins to freeze
True happiness is hard to find
And I feel so blind
Nothing is ordinary
Everything is so scary
Flying are the birds
Confusing are my words
Swimming are the fish
Rest is my only wish
Heard are the loud
Admired are the proud
Falling is the snow
The moon begin to glow
Protected are the important
Rejected are the ignorant
The weak are strong
The right are wrong
All lie
All die
Gone are the forgotten
Toss aside are the rotten
Remembered are those left behind
Poor are the kind
Wicked is the witch
Greedy are the rich
Ripe are the fruits
Worn are the boots
Rested are the dead
Comforting is the bed
Everlasting are the immortal
Dying are the mortal
Damned are the sinners
Oblivious are the beginners
Loved are the beautiful
Provoking are the hateful
With death I’m late
Changed is my fate
Sour are the sweet
Unbearable is the heat
Different are the same
We’re all to blame
Endured is the pain
Lost is my brain
Slipping into a somber
Memories I no longer wish to remember
Without a smile I feel nude
Think I want solitude
My soul is more than a token
Encased in a poor body but still not broken
Dying but not dead
Starving yet fed
Dark but not night
Peaceful yet fight
Can’t see but not blind
Here yet left behind
Crying but not sad
Good yet bad
Incorect but not wrong
Short yet long
Hurting but not in pain
Normal yet insane
Mad but not furious
Minor yet serious
Fake but not pretend
The beginning yet the end
Precious is time
Over is this rhyme
