I'm in physics on a lab day. My teacher is home sick today. You'd think that would be a good thing, no? Well it's not. It's quiet and boring and i kinda wanna fall asleep for 16 hours straight. But I can't.
Hmmm.... I'ma post a poem now. Yaaayyy!!!
Argue
You long for night, I long for day
Conscious reality
Reassurance of realism
With the dawn I come alive
With the dusk I feel suppressed
You long for day, I welcome night
Enveloping darkness saps the light
Unconscious dreaming
Wish the misfortunes away
With the dawn the burden returns
You say you feel free
That dreams are like a release
But they mean nothing
They aren’t real
The light is something tangible
The dark is something to fear
You claim it is grounding
That reality brings peace
But reality is not so simple
The vividness causes pain
The pain fades in dreams
To be awake is more frightening
How can you succumb
To your dreams so willingly?
Most times they cannot be mastered
The nightmares overwhelm
Until you long to see the sky
It always comes back to being truly alive
The nightmares stem from daylight pains
Exercise the guilty subconscious
Nightmares come to those with something to fear
And seldom visit those who know no guilt
Freedom from pain of sin
You just don’t understand.
Probably my best work to date. It took SO LONG to get this right. I'm most likely going to feature it in the book I'm writing for my G&T class, I love it so much. :)
ok bye...
