the girl of my dreams,
has been evading me-
for quite some time
its becoming increasingly difficult
for me to find her at night

remembering,
sends a chill down my spine,
and all I can wish for is twilight
when I will dream,
persistence is becoming futile it seems
its hard to sleep,
all I want to do is scream

internal conflict,
has always been my thing
my will is busting at the seams
insomnia is ripping me apart

I'm still awake,
and its a nightmare lasting endless days
I think I see her-
my heart skips a beat again

just a mirage
why do I fall so fast?
I get up, and you've already passed
have I found you at long last?
I'm so tired of playing second best

I need to sleep,
so I can see you in my dreams
my daydreams,
are all I can draw insipiration from
please just tell me that you are the one
so I can awake to a rising sun

shine bright, as my stars in the sky
I can't reach it from the ground any longer
Into my dreams I wander
pondering, if she is much farther
have I chosen the right path?
have I fallen too fast?
I wish so dearly this is not too good to last
so I can let my guilt drain from my stomach
and finally relax

It has been Seventeen
Months since I last wrote

The ink grew stale in the air
Of the outside world.

The prison bars become thicker
and the canvas is smeared

No rhyme, no reason
A simple etching

I think of the insipiration of
Insanity, like a falling rain

A drought has come
And dried this land

— The End —
