dream world

I'm a little bit apprehensive about stepping into someone else's world... but, this poem is for you, L33T M45T3R, and my angel dog, Betsy.

i open my eyes
and you are not there
because this is the real world.

where in the dream world
its the only place i can see you
the world hanging between life and death

the one place there is no pain
the one place imagination can exist

withdrawing into myself
is the only way to access.
as i grow weaker
more into myself

i am still alive
you are still alive
but ive turned us into walking zombies
with my selfishness.

there are no words to express how sorry i am
as i absorb you
your last dying screams
echoing at the back of my mind
the best i can do is withdraw farther.

and say goodbye to life
and say goodbye to death
forever suspended

End
