Love In Hiding
My dreams, when I awake, make me feel so alone.

I'm dreaming of butterflies who speak that change is good but I wake up with the world collapsing on my head and shivering under two blankets over my head.

I'm dreaming of a ****** moon and sitting beside you sharing a cigarette I'm dreaming of sun rays through my fingers and large beds shared with you

I'm dreaming of full moons and open skies, driving reckless and being a ghost in my own world I wake up and I am cadet on blankets and soundless in my own body.

I'm dreaming of screaming, and yelping, and darkness around me, doors closing fast and locked doors unlocking before my eyes and waking up feeling like a safe bet.

Only to know that I'm running away from the truth that lies beneath me.

I'm dreaming of a new me, whose screaming. "This place is suffocating!" and wake up seeing the same jail with no bars but walls that block the sun.

I'm dreaming of coming out of hiding and finally realizing, a voice tells me to step forward but I am still falling backwards when I wake up and my wide open eyes have forgotten the visions.

No one thinks of you until you show your claws
No one cares about you until you prove your strength
No one loves you until you show your heart
I am no poet, yet I write poems.
I am no writer, yet I write stories.
I am no hippy, yet I believe in world peace.
I am no politician, yet I have my opinions.
I am no god, yet I create.

I'm not one for boys who whisper sweet nothings into my ear & pass another girl & do the same thing,
I'm not a package
You can't ship me away when you get tired of me
I'm shutting down,
permanently.

The gears in my head,
jammed with the words that you said.
They can't turn,
or spin,
or move,
you win.

I'm leaving now,
forever.

Once my wheels hit the road,
there's no coming home.
I'll vanish,
disappear,
into thin air,
and you'll never hear from me again.

Like a cloud in the sky,
I'll move on.

I'll forget everything, erased,
like your name and your face.
I'll forget you,
delete you,
and never will I,
speak of you.

Because I'm moving on.

Like a cloud in the sky,
I'm moving on.
