My mind consumes my reality I absorb stories into my skin I breathe escape What do you do when the worlds in your head eat away at your life in the world outside? Indulging in fantasy comes before school, work, or sleep I do not live in this world I exist within it My heart and mind are elsewhere, Places this vessel cannot travel Places where this world doesn't exist To beautiful worlds I go And in beautiful worlds I stay While this body is left behind As I let myself decay
