In Dreams

I'm too sad to sleep.
Too tired to cry.
Too fearful to leap.
Too heavy to fly.
Too happy in dreams.
Too wasted to care.
Too worthless it seems.
Too filled with despair.

Too stuck in the past.
"Live in the present!"
All moving too fast.
Never been pleasant.
So now I must go.
The future it seems.
"I'll meet you again"
But only in dreams..
