Sleep...
sleep..
are you but a figment of my imagination.. ?
it seems to be..
otherwise i wouldn't fantasise...
your existence :(
ahh to be free of the tenures..
stress brings..
the stupid beliefs...
the f**ked up dreams...
the rash decisions..
the f**ked up visions..
and all the things ive wanted to see..
only to realise it isnt me..
its not where i want to be..
freedoms fought for lifes protection..
no need to learn the same old lesson..
been done..
been won..
no one walks the same collision..
of constant hurt and frustration..
we grow from these to form new ways...
not go back and reform those dark old days
so when your faced with this picket fence..
one side there's independence and freedom..
the other ignorance and bliss...
what would you do in this situation?
hope sleep comes quick?
and see what manifests?
if only...
or i wouldnt be here writing this..
