::daydream::

No place for me here
Among those around me
I escape in daydreams
Where reality is what I want it to be
And as I stare off into space
My eyelids grow heavy
With thoughts to carry me away
Somewhere far from this place

There are no burdens here

There are no sounds

I'm gone...


In a time of sweet silence
In time of corporal surrender
I listen only to the void
And what to me, it might render
And how I take it all in
Oh beautiful rapture sought
The peace; a wonderful calm
Yet somehow tainted by my thoughts
An ephemeral passing that is so surreal
A feeling that is so ethereal
Like a child caught in a web of daydreams
Lost in thought, lost in dreams

Awake.

Cold sweat.

Where am I?

My cold sense of reality
Like falling from a dream
Where all that was is what it seemed
I realize my frailty
Falling from my day dream
Crashing into cold concrete
My fingers search my face
To find...to find myself awake
