Perfection, Pleasure, Peace

by IdTakeABulletForYou   Jun 22, 2008


Utopian fantasies that
Circle 'round your head like
Sugarplums and candy canes the
Night Before Christmas
Immerse you into
Blindness to the
antithesis which,
so clearly,
you exist in.

You've found perfection (in your dreams)
You've found pleasure (in your dreams)
You've found peace (in your dreams)

You wake to find you lost
all
three
overnight.

Waking up sometimes is the
worst
nightmare
of
all.
