in my confines

shadows creep

without the light

to make me sleep

lighthearted wonder

a cold hearted blunder

distractions penetrating

abstractions suffocating

would that it was all that easy

enter into nothing

exit out of something

time is all encompassing

friendships are rare

mine the more rare still

is it needed

is it asked for

i never wanted to be alive

awakened from the dream

nightmares alive that make me scream

pulled into a void uncaring

pushed out of the darkness

unlearned
