Say It's Not So
For a few days now, it's been like I'm dreaming.
But in an instant, I try to process it's meaning.
I slip off to sleep.
Or am I in a thought so deep?
Either way, I wish I could stay.
This place that takes me away;
This place that dispels reality;
This place of calm and serenity.
Let me grieve and say it's just not so.
Let me think and sleep; just close the door.
For nothing more or less do I crave
Than to be left alone in this quiet cave.
Deep inside, my heart and soul are really okay.
Right now, I need some time to have nothing to say.
