Nightmare
*NIGHTMARE*
Beyond my lost mind,
Above my scary nightmares
There live a wandering soul.
Attacked my the unseen demons.
Heart shattered but not broken,
But, broken on a shattered mirror.
The sky is dark,
No stars of light.
Even the moon lacks lightning.
But my paths are blank,
The road to success hit so hard.
Hope lost, life restored.
Life of a mere human
Zero value but thousands abuse.
Is it a crime to be born poor?
There's no crime to be born rich.
I can't sleep, I am scared of my nightmares.
I'm being taunted like a slave,
I eat grass as breakfast,
Rules set to deflate my built tower.
I'm scared of nothing but my nightmares.
I want peace!
