Dead in My Illusions

By isa

Topics: Poetry Source: AllPoetry Original source

I called for myself in my sleep Wake up I said Wake up! This bliss is not real. Just a figment of my imagination. I walk into my house feeling on top of the world. Wake up I said wake up! This happiness is not real. Just a figment of my imagination. Everyone is happy smiling They don't feel tempted by the knives. Wake up I said Wake up! But I didn't want to leave, I wanted the illusion, To live in a dream I never woke up, never went back to reality. I died in my dreams, And I remain there forever Dreaming. Dead in my illusions.
