Who I'Ll Be
I lay in bed
Unknown, unsure
Of what I'll be like
In the future.
I walk in heavy fog
Half blind, half dead.
The fact that I'm extremely calm
Makes me worry, makes me dread.
Waking up, deep at night,
Sweating, turning round and round
I can't picture a future, no matter how hard I tried:
You were with someone else, safe and sound.
The roads are paved, the street lights shine
Stretching my hands in front of me-
Like what they do in anime, blocking the moon,
But all I see was me drowning in sea.
Helpless, breathless,
I grab a pillow close.
The pillow has my warmth,
But why do I feel so cold?
I lay in bed
Unknown, unsure
Of who I'll be
In the future.
