I used to believe in fairytales, but I failed in making one. My fairytale came, but I'd stopped dreaming. I'd made myself a good, real life but some dreams change everything. I can't live without sleep, but to only sleep is to die. I can only do so much when awake. I can't achieve goals in my sleep. I love life but I'm not a machine. I love dreams but I'm no longer a child. Reality isn't bad, and I can't leave it, but let me sleep, let me dream. I'm only here for so long.
