Forlorn
Among friends with whom I stay,
I notice their happiness, I wish I could relate.
Laying immobilized here all alone,
knowing that I should be at home.
Wishing that I was being taken care of by my wife,
instead of burdening my friends and their life.
The best thing about being sedated is that you don't dream,
seems like you awake as soon as you go to sleep.
Can I have that sleep for the rest of my days?
No more bad dreams or waking up with my mind in a haze,
remembering only the past, no future, no grace.
