I wake up in bed but I'm still in a dream. Trying to excape, what I just can't face. I'm trapped in my head, where everything is not what it seems. It feels so real these words take shape. Not sure what to make, of this one-two mistake. Trying to erase, the times I couldn't be brave. When I couldn't save, the me I couldn't become. When I was just too young. I couldn't understand. Why. It was already too late.

Awake but still dreaming
As I look into the mirror I see a world that wasn't meant to be. A place in which I can't understand. Fingers without hands, a one man band and a mountain of sand. A world not so bland. Time just stops, a door unlocks. Hopscotch in the rain, with water flowing down the drain. Anything but mundane. A walk in the park without light in the dark. A world with no unease where no one disagrees but no one sees.

A look in the mirror
In front of me is a wall. I know not how tall it is. Nor can I see or feel it. Yet I can sense its presence. It follows me everywhere I go always one step in front of me. It has been there ever since the day I was born. I just didn't realize until I did. It is the main cause of all my pain, suffering and lack of motivation. It is seemingly unbreakable.

An unbreakable wall
I don't remember many memories of comfort, or maybe I'm just biased since I forget how it is, the time it ends It's exhausting.

Thoughts Part 1
If I had to describe life in three words. Pain and distractions.

Life
Sometimes I wish I could run away from my mind. I might not be fine. Any longer, don't think I can get stronger. I can't find my shine.

Running from my thoughts
The one who once smiled. Now no longer, only frowns. Asking me why he can't be.

The man in the mirror
Deep down in the cave. On the walls displayed was a message engraved. Of the people betrayed. Many were enslaved. Looks of dismay. They needed a way. To see a world that wasn't so gray.

In another world
I'm laughing at myself. The pain I was dealt. From the board, the rod and the belt. The time I spent in the dark. Cast away far apart. In my mind blurred. Many times unheard. The hours I wasted. The ways I debated. The words I couldn't convey. The days that washed away. Knowing there's no I'm okay. I'm waiting every day. Just to say. Maybe today.
