Dreamland by ~nigelmacphereson:iconnigelmacphereson:

Categories Literature > Poetry > General Poetry > Open


Asleep from the world
Don't wake me up
I may not be truly happy
But dreams are better
Than fucked up reality
Hurts too much to be true

Nightmares spiral
One worse than the next
At least in there
You're by my side
Not at my throat
Shedding my life

Sometimes I wonder
Could Voltaire be authoring?
For time after time I die
But never do I stay dead
You're there to rescue me
Whenever I'm in a pickle
Better than life, where you
Push me farther in

So when you see me around
Know what you see isn't me

I'm just a shell, a husk
I'm stuck in dreamland
I'm not coming back
I'm addicted to false truth
I'm liking it more and more
I'm away from the hurt
I'm away from you
I'm not coming out

So don't wait up
I know you won't anyway

Things...led up to this. It's bitter and morose and unhappy, but hell, life is that way, so what does it matter?

Loving the final two lines. Nice job. :)

Bingo question - If 66 is "clickety click", and 22 is "two little ducks", why isn't 62 "clickety duck"?

98% of the teenage population does or has tried smoking pot. If you're one of the 2% who hasn't, copy & paste this in your signature.

life has it's ups&downs like everything else, in that matter. The best, happiest thing can become a nightmare, yet the worst thing can become a wish come true. Keep hoping Another great work! :hug:

I want to forget mistakes they've helped me make,
It's better to be broken than to break

Yeah...methinks I'm on a down right about now...but hopefully I return to the up pretty soon. Thanks!

Someone told me today that there are as many unfilled dreams as there are miles from us to the stars.. but really all that means is that we have to reach higher.
