Array ( [sid] => 74941 [catid] => 1 [aid] => mick [title] => Dreams [time] => 2004-12-08 19:18:44 [hometext] => This poem isnt really finished. Its another old one from about 2 years ago. I havent really came around to finishing it yet. It definately jumps from subject tp subject [bodytext] => Not quite living in the past,
The cars drive by so fast
Dreams the mouth is full of glass
Brain is bigger than the ***
Scared to show whats in the mind
If they dont understand
Then they are blind
We’re always running out of time
and all the lies have crossed the line
cherry gloss upon the lips
and a flower that dont fit right
stumbling over all the speed bumps
and dreams that just dont sit right
burnt cd’s and magazines
combined to make them see
the dream of children somewhere else
dont get your hopes up she
knows things are going
way too fast
and you just cant catch up
facts are laid out
and it all makes sense
thats what makes this
all so tough
blindfolded since before your birth
kept underneath this dome
the lessons all make sense to you
but the journey’s all your own.

Dream of a day
When none of it mattered
Smile on your face
Mind isnt scattered
Play with your toy
For hours on end
Knock on the door
Can you come and play with your friend?
Responsibility addiction
Hearts broken
Forced to listen
sounds inside your head
saying when you going to fix em?
Only left with what dreams you may have
In your mind we can both kiss and laugh
Thats all you owned since the very start
So dont let your dreams fall apart.
Contemplation of quality
A scale that doesnt measure
If I can’t take something away with me
Then I can’t give you the pleasure
And welcome to my world
Where my alarm clock is anxiety
They all shake their heads
And cry for me
I hate myself
And society
Dreams that cant find sobriety.
Peers peer into variety

Welcome to my world,
Where I don’t know myself
Discretion placed neatly
Back on the shelf
Beer bottles and smoke,
Accompany the end of the week
They dont say much in my presence
Turn the other cheek
Not happy with my actions
So far from my intensions
Are the others just like me?
The thing that she mentions

I liked this not only because it is just a jumble of different situations, but because they are all linked together. Just like the different aspects of our lives. Great write.
