Dream on

Dreams...

Dreams are like drugs,

driving you insane... and at the same time keeping you sane

Dreams are like a breath of fresh air when it feels like the walls are drawing in... closer and closer...

choking you--

*gasp*

they come and take the pain away

....

They know where it hurts

Where to kiss it better

... encompassing you in a warm happy bubble....

And

The moment you reach out to touch it

Stretch your hand carefully,

heart bursting,

Reaching...

Reaching

.

.

.

It ends.

Just like that, it breaks into a million pieces.

Like broken shards of glass it showers on you, digging in--

Piercing the fragile skin, drawing out the blood...

Your tainted blood

... drawing out the wants, the wishes, the needs....

And the harsh truth that you won't have it

You don't deserve it....

Dreams are sweet,sweet pain

... a blissful anguish

You know it'll hurt later, but you dream on

Dream on...
