Dreams Of No Regrets
'Simply walk away' the only thing i say asi'm tied down in my sheets
wrapped and wrapped around drunk
thoughts; images of needless worry
i tell myself to sleep
Wrapped and wrapped
around....unappreciation
intense dissatisfaction; toward myself
and those around me
--mirrors of myself; that, in the dark,
i remember as pieces of my own life
i wish i could throw away
pieces that i try to unravel
try to justify as times of need
'Simply walk away' i say again
sopping sheets of misery: insecurities
strewn around my room
'I want to throw away' i say
the coward wanting to fall away
into the shadows of selfish wishes
dreams of no regrets
