Haunted

Betrayed, dismayed
mistaken, forsaken
by all i ever believed in
my troubles hang over me like a cloud
memories descend upon my daily path
creeping through the dark in shadowlike forms
alas, i built my mind as an escape
from all the chaos of the outside world
and dream of a better place filled with sunny days
i long to fly across the sky
to neverland, never to return
i long to become one with the wind
abiding in the nothingness of the atmosphere
alas, it’s all a dream
i fall back into reality
and
i’m lonely, unhappy, and sorry
yet i smile but it’s no one’s worry.
