to romanticize life
there comes satisfaction and sorrow
thoughts become possibilities
that create empty tomorrows.

hope is a dangerous thing;
you end up holding on to 11:11
day one expectations high
and destroyed by day seven.

"expect the unexpected,"
but "you can't sit around and wait;"
dreaming has become much easier
and more convenient as of late.

so i think i'll just go to sleep
thoughts of negativity and sorrow
can shut their eyes and be tucked away
until i'm in the reality of tomorrow.
