Escaping from life

Location

 

I write to escape from life...
 

I hear whispers slither into my ear 

soft subtle lies I love to just hear
I steer into the my psyche... 
Minding what I say...
People hear me but don't listen....
I listen but dont care...
Mind floating away from my body 
I'm alive but I'm seldom here I always fear
My seldom fears...
My mouth speaks but I'm mostly unaware...
 
Okay see the way I coagulate 
Words in these phrase 
Are a mere example of how I lived my whole life traveling through mazes...
Betrayal heartache and all these different phases 
begin to form a story that explains
How exactly did I make it...
Conflict formed my sorrow
And I hid in my own self made oasis...
Then for a while I realized I needed to get back to the basics...
I could never forsake this
 
At night when I unfold my dreams like memories
I look up to the sky and wonder why 
Do we all live a lie
Then upon my pad my life I begin to scribe.
