Dreaming Of Tears
Weary-eyed
Weakened to the very core
Traumatized
I can't endure this anymore
I'm going to black out
And be transported to a realm
Where my screams don't make a sound
Hate keeps me bound while I leave my fears to drown
-
I loath the days without rest
I despise the nights of endless stress
Though I can't settle for anything less
Because lower than this is death
It's like living and sleeping within tortuous realities
Even though I'm unconscious- there is no such thing as rest for me
No one knows how powerful my dreams can be
No one knows all of the graphic images I've seen
Dive into the ocean! / Swim through the thorns!
Let your pain open! / Allow your skin to mourn!
The memories start to fill
Then time stands still
A level of this kind of guilt
Is more than enough to kill
I don't know whats worse- my dreams
Or all of the secrets that I keep
It's hard to believe
This is what I call 'sleep'
-
In these impure waters
I bathe in the pools
Those of a coward
Who is nothing more than a fool
Need to let it all flow
Don't let the tears stop
Need to let it all go
Until this whole world floods

? Very deep. The narrator's psyche seems to have absorbed so many things in his/her lifetime. I can't imagine being in that state.
I can actually connect to this. Every day, something gets screwed up, and all I can really do is sit and wonder why, moreover how, life came crashing down through the ceiling. I ended up reading this piece aloud, just to hear how it really was supposed to be read.
"Until the whole world floods." Words that can describe sorrow, but also joy. Just as tears of misery affect how we live, happiness can do the same. I congratulate you on a great work that will reside in my mind for the longest time.
