Sometimes I wish that I wasn’t such a dreamer That I could listen, see, and feel in a normal way Without my mind flowing into a constant dream world Where imagination takes control And all sense of reality Floats off into the wind like that of a feather Sometimes I wish I could switch from there to here in a blink of an eye So that you wouldn’t yell Or dismiss me like that of a child For you never give me a chance to open my world up to your eyes Let you see what I see Sense what I sense Feel what I feel Sometimes I wish you’d hold out your hand And take me up from this darkened corner in which I call home It’s cold in the place where I stay Where beauty is far from reach And a loving, kind voice is unheard I lie awake at night and listen to their screams Dreaming of a place to escape Sometimes I wish you would understand me Without shutting me out or abandoning me like everyone else has For I’m drifting off again Into a world where I can never turn back And the world turns into clay within my hands Yet this world is not real Never was Never will be Just a world that I create within my mind That tears me from this nightmare of a life.Birth sign: Scorpio
