I Woke Up This Morning

CATEGORY

life

Woke up this morning waiting to die
misery and time never fly by

There were so many haunting shadows
lingering way too long
in this journey of mine

Most of them loathing and dark
but a few stood out and shined

I was always looking the wrong way it seems
looking for unreal dreams

Finding wisdom only after the sorrow and torment
removed all life from me

So either they left
or my mind could no longer stay
fearing my loss of sanity

So here I sit void

My mind endlessly wandering through time
pondering that deliverance into madness
will be surely divine

My soul is shackled
suffocating and struggling in vain
my principal charge is managing the pain

I observe others around me
all with hope to cling to
someone to cling to

I have nothing
no one

Woke up

Just waiting
