As the world around me wails in the madness that is pain, As the walls around me shake and threaten to crumple, As the thoughts of tomorrow sway relentlessly in the mist of uncertainty, As I selfishly ignore all else and focus on the creaks of my lovely bed, The bed that knows me and has heard me cry, The bed that has rocked me to sleep The bed that has let me dream. The bed I have come to love, My bed
My bed that keeps me around from all that’s important, My bed that doesn’t encourage me to go deal with life, My bed that allows me watch deadlines go by My bed that has made me selfish, made me lazy How did it get to this time where I had to hide myself in the open A time where my life was to obvious and yet I felt misunderstood, A time were I settled with what I had because wanting was selfish. I want to fly off to the desert I find water just because, I want to live with the dolphins and come out to play only when I’m cheerful And tomorrow whenever it chooses to come. Will remember today as my liberation day.
Bittersweet. caught between a rock and a hard place
