Daydream


5.4.14

What do you see 
When you look at me 
Do you see sadness?
Do you see what I 
Want you to see?
I torture myself 
With an unreal reality 
I live in it, I am always 
in it. Inside my 
head are secrets that 
live under lock and key 
Even when the door that 
is my mouth turns the key 
and utters the word
"daydream" the secret forever 
remains a secret . You 
cannot tell someone 
something that 
they do not understand.
