I woke up from a lonely dream It reminded me of the life I lead One of loneliness and self doubt Confused by what life's all about Friendless due to my selfish ways Hoarding all the love I have, I ought to be resigned to give away
Instead, I grow more bitter More distant from the crowd I fear my love will wither Follow me into the ground Unaware what might have been If only I had made a sound Been a little more outspoken Maybe hollering out loud Telling everyone just how I feel Going the extra mile All while moving leaps and bounds
It's time I awaken from my slumber From the cave in which I dwell Try and replicate bits of heaven That thou-shalt-not end up lost, stuck in a living hell Expand my impractical horizons Give of myself to those in need Release all that's stayed held within Undaunted; un-afraid to bleed
There is more truth in this poem than I dare care to admit
