Escaping Reality
I have a few more days
In this prison cell
That they call
A hospital ward
Too long has it been
Since I have tasted freedom
I now feel like
I'm on a bed of roses
Feeling my skin
Getting ripped apart
Bit by little bit
It bleeds over the thorns
Soaking into the petals
Staining the white buds red
Dripping down to the floor
And making a pool of crimson
Waiting with anxiety
And anguish
Hoping to be free
To roam around once again
To walk amongst the living
To cast out my shadow
And inhale the fresh air
With my toes in the sand
But that seems like hopeful wishing
And maybe it is
But that is my wish
For a perfect vacation
