AWAKE IN THIS DAYDREAM
AWAKE IN THIS DAYDREAM
Written by Alana Cheng
I’m awake in this daydream, of the fantasy that’s only happening with my eyes open, to be awake in this daydream, by a dissonant feeling of this dystopian world of such chaotic dysfunction, with having to be awake in this daydream, with all that it would seem, of something to the masses, of wherever I have fed myself right into, in a lively world of such whirlwinds, to the self-destruction of my own self-infliction, of being so awake in this daydream, in the kind of reality that’s only making me feel so claustrophobic to the room of existence that I’m stuck in right now, for all that I would seem to allow, of myself to feel so isolated to the dreams at bay, with so much more that is still yet left to say, as I’m awake to this daydream, of the fantasy that’s only making me keep my eyes wide open, come what may, with every cent to the token, for which I would save, with the safe haven of being alone with only myself at this time, in the freedom to have the chance, to write down all my thoughts, with all my words, and with every touch of a rhyme, to be made possible, and to be so understandable to myself, while keeping myself hidden away on the shelf, only for the time being, while feeling so awake in this daydream, but it won’t be long until I’ll come right back into the world of reality, so happily swinging, and so lovingly singing, while feeling so wildly hopeful in being awake in this daydream, as that is what it would all so happily seem, in this moment of this sweet restoration, as I’m just trying to awaken right back into this world with such love and such everlasting beauty in this life with a whole lot of celebration, after being stuck so long in a time of reconstruction and such complete isolations, but this is only just the rebirth, in being so wide awake in this daydream, of bringing out so much more of my poetically energized creations.
