Constant unrelenting pain
Uncaring and neglectful
Ever present cranial pounding
Knot retched stomach
Violence
Self-destruction
Pain
Death
Begging for these
Every hour I’m awake
Feeling only pain
Sinking in depression
Slipping further down
With each waking breath
Too cold to cry
No reason to laugh
I want to sleep forever
Dreams are the only place
I have found happiness
In my minds imagination
Active while I slumber
Hidden from society
I feel no pain
In a perfect world
Created in my mind
Only I can visit
When the lights grow dim
And the world is silent
Wish to sleep for eternity
To feel nothing but joy
In a world created
While I lay at rest
Author notes
I don't want to wake up anymore...sleeping is the only thing that makes me happy...there is no pain there..

I think I remember how this laptop thingy works... only after wiping off the dust.
YEAH... believe it or not I sometimes browse. -
WOW..you still get online??

Almost forgot how to feel till...
To dream of a perfect world... can be... trivial. Feeling safe and in control while you sleep... understandable. You know I understand those emotions and maybe heed my advice... you're better off awake... that's why they're called dreams. Soooooooo... WAKE UP AND GET OFF YOUR AS$ and change what needs to!!! WORD -
my words exactly.

"Active while I slumber
Hidden from society
I feel no pain
In a perfect world
Created in my mind
Only I can visit
When the lights grow dim
And the world is silent"

(you just reminded me with what one of my friends commented on my Fantasy poems today. She said that my poems were really good, only there were to Fantasy as if she were in a dream, but when the poem ends.. she wakes up to the real world

Iron or steel cannot chain a heart that soars through all life's pain, to disatant shores in hopes true course, gallantly bearing lifes wails and chores.. striking no foot upon the stone, walking above waters tempest foam.. be at peace.....

I enjoyed this, very well written. This is a wonderful poem. Dreams are the one true escape. (Unless you dream about the crap that happened during the day...) Anyways, good write. I enjoyed it.
