Time To Wake Up

(Originally written on January 19th, 2004)

Drowning for what appears to be,
Forever. I'm falling.
I can see walls of staring eyes,
Fixated on my failures.
And I'll greet them,
And I'll comfort them,
And I'll bite the hand that feeds.

Because I've tried to fly before,
And the impossibility astounds me,
As I watch you all grip so tightly.

Let go of your dreams and look around,
Take a deep breath and feel yourself cry,
As realisation suffocates you,
That this is all for nothing.

Hopes that bleed anti-climax,
What is created, is betrayed by it's creator,
Now it's time to wake up.
