Tempting
When I am sad,
Sleep seems to be
Such a tempting solution…
All my troubles go away when I am sleeping.
It’s because I am in
A new world…
A world where I control...
Everything…
A world where no one knows me.
A place where no one yells…
A room with just silence…
A school with only friends
A realm with no problems or
Drama.
But as tempting as sleep is
There is reality…
The real world
Where I am Powerless…
A place where people yell at me…
There are rooms full of noise when I need peace
Schools full of my enemies
It’s a realm full of problems and
Drama…
So it’s gotten to the point…
Where sleep is the best part of my day
And it’s so tempting…
So tempting…
That I believe
Living in a dream…
Is better than living
In this world.
