Falling too far into your unconscious mind . . . (3rd place in item of month comp!) |
Deceiving Mind I can’t tell you the number of times I’ve wished for this Warm hugs, bright smiles and the sweet smell of happiness No argument waiting to explode Can finally be content with my humble abode No threat of hurt feelings, or eyes hiding fear No sign of silent crying, not a single tear No clock quietly ticking, counting down till the end Just quality time, thinking of ways in which to spend The house is calm; just listen to that silent sound No worries or problems, this peace at last I’ve found Just look at those eyes, they light up as they shine Hope and courage back into our lives, everything’s just fine The soft sound of satisfaction, and the souls of ours so free No pressures, no fake smiles, no need to worry Always being put down, told in everything we did lack The loss of all that held us down, no need to look back But wait what’s that appearing, right before my eyes A bright light, a new day, the sight of sunrise No this just can’t be, it felt so wonderfully true Everything’s the same, nothing's changed, nothing new When you go to take a rest, just stop and think Just how far into your unconscious mind, you might sink Don’t let yourself be fooled by the hope we find in dreams Don’t forget, its just an image, no matter how real it seems Can’t believe this was just conjured images, the joy felt was so real All that's left are the pieces of my shattered heart and the hope that they'll heal. |
