I lie down by the dandelions
To sleep a peaceful sleep
I rest my head on the green bed
Going somewhere down, deep
I move my lips to make a sound
Words don’t seem to follow me
So I hover my hands to show
Try to make you see all that I feel
I like to keep my doors closed
Do it all for self defence
Shut you out when you try to walk in
Expect you to see through my lens
Lately I have been surviving
Thriving in my dark, impaired town
Madness spreading around like cancer
Fear and panic growing loud
It’s about all that’s within
Killing me slowly like a disease
All the things I can’t speak of
All the things making me weak
I have waited to be woken up
For this nightmare to pass
As the dandelions sway beside my mortal body
As I slowly fade into the soil
As I slowly vanish
As I slowly sleep
A peaceful sleep
