Poems by a Student

Denial

Let me fall

Out of the abyss of reality

And into the dream world

Because maybe there

I can find

Truth

Because my brain seems to understand

What the world is saying

But I don't

So can I fall away

Into a place

Where life makes

Sense

A place where I can show them

That they are wrong

That she is here

I will talk to her

In a month

A week

A day

She will be there

She has to be there

Because I'm here

Tomorrow

Tomorrow I will see her

And we will talk

And laugh

Like none of this ever happened

We will live without reality

And we will be safe

Tomorrow
