sadistic

I see smiles, laughing faces, warmth

touching

I see sweetness and an abundance of love

It is everywhere

all around me

I can’t escape those faces, those smiles

and true hearts

I run

cruel cruel world

My deepest desires all around me

strangers immersed in what I dream

cruel cruel world

for although it is all so near

I am galaxies away from attaining it

so I watch

I watch

I watch

New dreams emerge

What I previously yearned

no longer a care

numb

I just wait

I wait

I wait

Atlas! Deliverance!

Bring forth your humanity

give to me what is all our destiny

the quiet peace of forever sleep
