Asleep

by Jasmyn   Aug 10, 2006


Night after night
day after day
i deal with these demons
because they wont go away
where are the angels that are supposed to watch over me?
I'm left alone with these thoughts
when i want to break free.
theres no escape though
I'm trapped inside
Ive tried running
but theres no where to hide.
i don't know how much more i can take
if this is a dream
i desperately need to wake
but i know that its not
i know that its real
I'm walking wounded
with no means to heal
cant someone see the hurt in my eyes?
cant someone see I'm sinking too deep?
even though i know I'm not
i pray that I'm asleep.

    Aww..this was sad.. you had pretty good descriptions and the emotion was clear.. the flow was a little off in parts where the lines were too long.. nice job though! 4/5
