Alone in the Dark
As I sit here
Alone in the dark
Thinking, thinking, thinking
Boredom creeps into my bones
Taking over my body
Making my tiredness expand
Sleepiness hanging on my eyelids
Thoughts popping into my head
Like bubbles being blown my way
But quick to pop
At the sound of my mind
The thoughts of life, emotions, choices
All so confusing
Just a jumble of mess
To add to the pile
Voices screaming things at me
Voices that ring into oblivion
Like the face of happiness and sadness
One telling me what I want
The other saying the opposite
Past memories dancing terribly
Through my mind
Squishing my brain
With each awful leap they take
Things I want to do
Float pass me on a piece of paper
Things that will never happen
Faces appear in front of my eyes
Faces with dissappointed looks
In the end
I give into the boredom
And fall asleep
