In just a blink
you sink
.
In just a flip
you sleep
.
In just a finger snap
you swap
.
Just in time my eyes close
~
YOU
Sink in the deep blue
Sleep in a white hue
Swap your soul from a mild dew to a mindless clue.
.
You are the lightest cotton ever lived
The flame shining fieriest, so naive
Still, you can’t be lit
Your candle is melted and split.
.
Are these true?
Are they real?
Are they new?
Are these surreal?
.
It’s drilling in my head
The pain, the memories
It’s quaking under my bed
The past, the miseries
It’s boring in my skin
The thoughts, the regrets
It’s dripping down my chin
The tears, the threats
~
Those are just walls
When I’m stone-walling
Those are just imageries
When I’m imagining
Not even knowing
That nightmares are dreams too
~
Until I close my eyes
And my tears drip, then
Sink
Sleep
Swap
~
This time, my eyes close by themselves.
