DayDreams

Daydreams of you haunt me at night, the frightening sight of me holding you tight.

Breathing heavy, sweating, looking for a lip to bite.

It might be nightmarish to stare into your cold eyes, but cold stares don't lie,

they might **** and I might die, but for sure I won't cry.

These daydreams scream obscene obscenities torturing my memories,

sending me to limbos with no souls, and no way out.

I shout into silence and silence then pouts. I fear this dreaded destination,

this nation of introspective meditation. Just face it, there's no face to save it,

no place for shelter, this helterskelter is inescapable. Incapable but breakable,

for sake's sake the will is shakable. These daydreams I swear, scare themselves,

like label less books upon empty shelves. Let the faded pages delve deep into the depth of my id and ego,

let us see how far the rabbit hole goes, maybe to wonder the underland who truly knows?

Daydreams of you haunt me at night, untucked and cold I sleep in fright.

Maybe this notion of holding you tight, will send into motion

heavy breathing, sweating, and a lip to bite.

Now hurry off to bed, for this lullaby is dead, goodnight to thoughts and the whispers in your head.
