Do I really have what it takes?
You will all say "yes!"
Scream the cliche at me.Will I be strong enough to over come this feeling?
To feel in control? Responsible?Will I wake up?
Snap out of this daze I am stuck in?Yes isn't what I want to hear,
If in fact I'd rather see things happen.
That will then mold my perspective of the unknown into my hands.
Then I can make decisions and thoughts I can trust.Right now it's a dangerous unknown void I don't know if I can pass and overcome.
Maybe I don't want the responsibility
Maybe I just want to feel free
Rather than caged."Wake up!" Someone screams at me I hear more as an echo,
Confused in the state I wake up from.
Bizarre.
"What have you done!" I start to wake, tubes, dark hospital room.Freedom I thought.
How long was I gone? Fighting myself in my mind?
Well the last part of the dream was the part where I killed myself.
Funny.Even if life does feel like a dream,
Doesn't mean we're stuck in this realm.You wouldn't wake up.
You'd be thrown into a black void.
Nothing.
Where nothing exists.
Where you don't exist.
