"False Hopes"   10 - 30 - 02



Not the dreary

Regular scene

I'm the new bloke

You've never seen



Away the clouds

Out the sun

A brand new day

Has begun



Down with despair

Up with the hope

Young, frail hands

Grab the rope



Out of the corners

Into the crowd

Don't be ashamed

Be free and proud



Open your eyes

You're alive as can be

Life is what it seems

Don't awake from this dream



6:25 am

The loud beep

I awake and cry

No more hope I keep...

Author's Notes/Comments: 

I have warm dreams, explicit dreams, hopeful dreams, fun dreams... but that's all they are, dreams. i sometimes never want to wake up; not like, 'kill myself' way, but to stay asleep, to prolong the dreams. i dunno, some things are too simple to grasp and others too easy to be real--dreams

Three of the most powerful things to write about... Love, depression/sadness, and dreams...

I always hate waking up from a dream that I just wish would last forever...

No corrections or anything... I just thoroughly enjoyed this.

Making me want to write my own free-flowing, non-punctuated work... Although, I couldn't haha. I'm too much of a perfectionist and grammar Nazi :P
