Dream Not Me


Dark, cold, alone ,

decisions which led me to my final stop,

my end of the road

waking up to no public statements,

yet I sleep until morning  

afraid without a future 

Taking my kid to work with me 

But Im in here for eternity  

alone and obscure,

I want out urgently

Trust not those around you,

But those within you  

As I am now a victim of the fallen reign

now locked in a miscule cage

Pursuing a position as a masquerade

Indeed I was the greatest for ages

Now the real me is regretting and writing pages.

I as father am false me,

So I tell you dear daughter, 

pursue yourself 

And DREAM NOT ME.
