4:25...
...The rain hits the metal pane
My locked door struggles inside
I lay in darkness fully awake
I guess no sleep for me tonight
My mind sifting through staggered thoughts
Each one creating feelings of loss
I'm stranded in a room of darkness
No light paves a way out
My lips and brows steadily decline
To a truth I'm unable to harness...

The spilled ink stained
All over the circular walls in the halls
Of my guttered mind
Reaching into the crevices
Of my brain, I strain
To see the colors
Indistinguishable to my eyes
I've become blind
Nothing is clear anymore
The mixture muddied and incoherent
I'm drowning in the thickness of it all
I wrote this in 2014

Did I cry
for all the times you left me
Or was it the pain
that I was unable to escape
No matter how much time passes
Or how long it took me to recover
I'm still hurting inside
reflecting on my life so far

Shhh
You're dreaming
As you gently kiss me
On my lips
I whisper
I wish it were real
Then open your eyes
After I give you this kiss
You whisper

— The End —
