I used to dream in black
A nightmare with a dark hue
Faces fleeting fast
all under the suspicion of
an indistinguishable mask
A world without empathy
Humans hidden beneath
a silhouette of self-absorption
Tenderness terminated by
an uncontested abortion
I'm no longer asleep
Rapid eye movement supplanted by
the torment of heavy eyelids
I stare out into the mean and bloodthirsty chasm of life
Up at the misguidance of individualistic rulers
This is reality
