Sleep Escape

by Beautiful Chaos   May 16, 2012


I left today
No note
No signs
No goodbyes

I got lost inside my head
My memories
My thoughts, wants
Questions and needs

Remembering who I was
Where I was
It didn't feel that far away
It was still thriving inside of me

The struggle of being too much
Or not enough
Drifting in and out of change
Filled with fear

What time doesn't change
Circumstances do
Though under the surface
It all stays the same

It's the delivery that changes
If you're lucky
If you learn
Look beyond yourself

A silent heart and head
Stagnant life
Of course you'd feel like you were dying
Without reason and wonder

Wonder at that reasoning
To be right and wrong
Still wander on
Happy, content

I came back today
No one knew I was gone
There were no signs
It all lays hidden inside of me

A self exploration
My dance with Morpheus
Reaffirming all I am
All I've ever been

    So many questions and so many doubts raised in this sad write.

    We all at some point in our lives raise similar questions, it's part of life and being human.

    Nice write.
