the Deffinition of Dreaming for Psychos.

I fall asleep finally,
i hate closing my eyes,
feels like there's someone there,
something there.

I fall asleep achingly,
hard to swallow when I'm sleeping,
feels like i'm choking,
makes me vomit,
they get mad tho,
so i clean it up.

I fall asleep crying,
tryin to wipe it away
as best I can,
but I just heave in the dark,
alone.
they get mad though,
when I get like this.

I fall asleep,
but I just awake again,
eyes bleeding,
I'm not awake,
I can't be awake.
because no ons mad yet.

I'm asleep,
I don't wake up for hours,
I dream of breaking,
of hurting them all,
but I don't want to,
I don't mean to.
they're mad at me tho,
for what I did,
but i didn't mean to.

***

I wake up pulling at the sheets,
feels like i need to retch,
i do and they get mad.

I wake up sweating,
feels like I need to be bleeding,
so I bleed,
but they just get mad.

I wake up crying,
feels like I need to hurt something,
so I do,
i hurt something,
someone,
but they just get mad.

I wake up screaming,
arms taught,
legs writhing,
brain twitching,
but they're not mad,
they're dead,
because I'm not awake,
I'm just asleep still,
give me time.

I wake up holding myself,
because no one else will.
wake up wanting the warmth
to be someone else's.

I wake up crying
but not because of the dreams,
because the walls are white
and i can't do anything but hold me,
my body's armor wont let me,
now its me that's angry,
why'd they have to send me here?

    The message came across strong enough. There seems to be a lot of raw emotion behind it, go figure. Some areas you may want to reword a smidge just to allow the flow to be a little smoother. It makes one ask questions as to what it is that are causing such hellashis dreams. I've noticed that it is how the mind relieves the pains that we try to lock away, but then again what do I know? thank you for letting me read it!
