This place is so unfamiliar –
I don’t know where I am.
The world is a scary place,
So I’ve shut myself in.
Driven to insanity,
Locked up in my mind.
Drifting through time,
Revisiting the past.
Reveries of happiness,
Where there was no grief –
The darkness has consumed them,
I never see the light.
And I’m just a mindless drone,
Doing as I’m told.
An automaton doing work,
With no independent thoughts at all.
Staring blankly at the world,
Trying to make sense of it all.
Losing my balance,
Please, someone, catch me when I fall.
And these reveries of happiness,
Are the only things that keep me alive.
For one day I strive to find them,
And be able to live in happiness once again.
