A Poetic Dream Poem by mike susak

Another sleepness night
Tired of all the dreams, i have to fight
Screaming from all the translucent nightmares
Needing stitches for all the slight tears
My heart is pounding
The thunder is sounding
I'm sweating like a dog in heat
And still my mind never misses a beat
Lightning, striking, Trees are burning
Still continue, Tossing and turnng
Open my eyes i swear im awake
I heard a voice say, Thats a mistake
I sit up and, looked around
I here shhh, Don't you make a sound

Swept away into a fantay land
Were there was nothing but dried up oceans and wet sand
All this B.S seems like a vanishing mystery
I tried to put it in the back of my mind as if it were history
It keeps reappearing, With th blink of an eye
Life would be so much easier if i would to die
Breathing melodramatically, causing nausea and trauma
Yet people add nothing but B.S and drama
Stess has gotten the best of me
Tippin up a bottle, So blind i can't see
I realize i made some pathetic choices
But to this day i swear i heard voices

What i thought was a way out
Filled my head up, Even more with doubt
And what was the worst time of my life
Its now ok to retire the blade on my knife
My dreams are all my fault
Afraid to talk, I locked feelings tightly in a vault
Now i must live, With all my shame
When all i wanted to do is shift the blame
I felt for myself and wanted pitty
So hung over I just want to feel sh***y

All this agony and pain
All the times, i prayed for rain
Everytime i wished for somethng
I always recieved nothing
But still i remained persistant
Even through my bottle of assistant
I don't need it anymore i never did
So i closed it up and capped it with a lid
Why i felt so violent
My fists and my mind made me feel like a tyrant
It was no excuse
No need for abuse
It's all over now
I take a deep breathe and step back and all i can say is wow

Soon i will be back
Right back on track
I open my eyes the nightmare is over
Even though i may never find a four leaf clover
Luck is what you make of it
And i will always keep that fire lit.

So here at last
A poetic dream
To quite screams
A dream for me
Soon you will all see
Im back to me
Soon you'll see
