The dreams there are none now
I cannot see ahead
Do not look forward to the next day
A day struck off my life as night falls.
Counting them on the calendar
Just bottles inside
Holding all my emotions
Noticing with mask on
And a zip on the lip
I cannot speak my mind
I live a life inside my head
A place where I am laughing
And crying
Shouting
Loving
I am hysterical
Delirious
I jump with joy
I fight
Where I get up in the morning with a smile
A lazy stretch
Look around to see the morning sun in my window Look forward to the day
Sing my favourite song
Hum a tune
Embrace the day.
The dreamer just dreams
And lives shadow lives
With open eyes the dreams vanish
And inside the head a world is vibrant And the heart beats to a different song.
