Open
Spinning Falling
Spiraling out of control
My eyes flash open To escape the darkness of the dream
Only to be greeted by the sight of the colour of a midnight raven
I open my nose to breathe in a deep breath
Only to be suffocated by the weight of my sadness and despair
I open my mouth to shout out in fear
Only to be silenced by the by the limitations on what I should say
I open my mind to think creative thoughts
Only for it to be shut down by all the closed-mindedness around me
I open my heart to try and feel the love around me
Only to find the world filled with hate
I opened myself up to the world
I was rejected now I close myself in a cask of self-doubt
