Dream Box

 Inspired by a fortune cookie

       Am I here alone? I've been there and back again, but it seems i'm still the same from way back when. I sit here alone as I fade away, I open my dream box and escape the day. I'm not sure this time if I want to go, but I have been blessed with this feeling of cold. None the less, I'm as peaceful as a stone.

Am I here alone?

      The day seems blank as of late. With you, everything seems gray and there's no color left in this state. Why keep pushing me to satisfy you.. I just cant perfect everything I do. When will you see that the pressure is causing me to pop, and leaving me nothing but a negative and a knot. I retire, I cant seem to get this through.. I'm praying, and hoping the answers come through. If not, then there's nothing left to do. I don't want to be with you, I want to be with those who make me smile. Enough of your constant trials. Open the box. Gone are the problems I so well known.

Am I here alone?

      A need to succeed, to let all the unfulfilled desires break free, where no one will disagree. Just enter the box, explore all my countless thoughts. 

In the box I fly over the skies, and it seems like the sun will shine forever. In this fantasy I dream we're together.. your hand in mine, watch this world I built for you, so perfectly designed. The pain is gone, and I celebrate in this new dawn. Your here in my dreams, only you and me. Imagination is all you could be, but my harmony is guaranteed. Your here next to me on my throne.

If i'm not the only one.. why do I feel so alone?

      There's nothing left for me except to dream a definitive plot. An escape from life's hardships, maybe I can find a grip, maybe I can find happiness, somewhere this all exists. Its not just a plea for a better place, but more like a scream for a minute of grace. Something only I can make, something I throw myself into to soothe the aches, just for a second, just for a second.. but that's all it takes. This is what happens when I'm in the zone.

Here I am alone

      Everything is apart of me. No more do's and don'ts, I control what I see. The dream box lets me open all of life's locks, turn back all the clocks. It may not be real, but its a quick antidote to heal. 

Here I am alone, and there's no where else I would want to be. Just me and my dreams..
