it's been awhile since i've written in this forum.i hope everyone here is doing well. i've had a lot on mind lately and i needed to get some of it out.

here goes:


I want to sleep all night and day.
I .V dripping dreams.
Whisking pain away.
Glimmers I can see.
My world, where I belong.

Atlas on steroids.
Aphrodite and honey.
Patron saint of joy.
Cupid’s arrow and zeus’s lightening
Combat boots for Achilles.
It won’t be enough.
To save or change.
Transcend or dull the pain.
To shine or buff. Scoff or scuff.
The jade where rose once stayed.

Morpheous and Hypnos make a pact.
To bring the things I lack.
My world, Bliss hits
eclipsed blueberry lips.
Flying across the ocean
Watching the falling leaves.
Immersed in fog and mist.

Atlas drops the ball.
Hades attacks
hope staggers and falls.
Under perditions wrath.
Hercules becomes a vampire.
Tainted, a hit man for hire.
And kills morpheous in his sleep.

I could use all my wishes.
Walk a thousand miles.
Exorcise all the demons.
Gather tears from crocodiles.
Save Schrodinger's cat.
But it won’t bring him back.
It’s really as it seems.
It’s not enough.
I witness the requiem of dreams.
