a poor demented soul
infected by a deadly disease
dreams of a euphoria
inspire hope
a picturesque image
of paradise
perfectly displayed
so vivid in color
the sights are almost palpable
a bright blue waterfall
drops of spring felt
upon his face
the forest was a lush green
it felt so real to him
a top the mountain
was a bright gold castle
he called his
humble abode
falling into a dark abyss
his mind ceases all thoughts
a bright light shines
from far away
he opens his eyes to
a hellish world
a great depression
falls over him
consuming his life
what he saw
what he thought was real
was only a dream
his screams of pain
are heard from far
beyond!
Drowning in an
elixir for insomnia
negligent of his
own constitution
slowly his mind descends
into a euphoric state
passing through the
walls of sleep
his life draws closer
to the end
as a morbid infection
consumes him
ignorance is bliss
for he truly believes
that his dreams
are his life
once again he wakes up
this time
with his hands behind his back
tied together by a straight jacket
he sees white all around
forever to be alone
forever to be imprisoned
insomnia rampant
here he lies in an insane asylum
through his violent outbursts
he's given an elixir for insanity
once again he falls
beyond the walls of sleep
into a euphoric state he descends
never to wake again
finally he is greeted
by death
