Sleepless Dreams


I fall asleep with wandering dreams

The colors are so vivid; I’m bursting at the seams

I’m walking on endless thoughts

But I’d never considered I’d get caught,

Inside this strange place with no way out

There are so many roads with different routes

I feel like I’m floating through space

And I’m afraid I’ll never touch back on home base

As I’m here I feel half insane

The walls are closing in, but I feel no pain

I jolt awake and sit up with no delay

And all my memories of before drift away
