Locked Inside My Dreams

I get so sick to my stomach

I wanna plummet to my death and end it all

I get so depressed

These pains in my chest

No one to call

My downfall's forseen

I'm locked inside my dreams

And it seems reality's just a fuckin' nightmare

I sit back prayin' someone actually might care

They're not there

They can't be found

I'm gettin' clowned by society

Constantly beaten down by their notoriety

Praying to be saved by my own poetic justice

Is justice even real

Or just something we feel

Something we need to feel safe and secure

In a world so unpure

I'm sure the lure of the cure will make us all feel better

I've gotta fuckin' get her

I sit and write fuckin' letters that'll never be read

I'm fucked in the head

My emotions crushed by the things that have been said

So I'm almost done

Life's no longer fun

My river's almost run

Completely dry

It's time to say goodbye

Hey Brandon,

This was really heart felt, and it made me just stop and think about my past. I've been exactly where you are, or where when you wrote this, you definitely not alone. Don't give up.

Think about this: Don't say goodbye before you've even said hello.

This was a very real piece of work, but don't give up when your down. The only where to go from down is up.
