Disappear

by ShadowsEmber   Sep 17, 2014


It's funny when the world seems against you
you always want a way out.
How though you have no reason,
A hole develops in your chest.
An emptiness,
Like a void.
And all you can think is
"When will this end?"
All you want is to escape reality
And live in a world all your own.
Those days when your past is all that you can think about.
Those days when you just want to be in an endless slumber.
I only wish they would disappear.
