You're Not Real
I can feel it.
The walls are closing in.
I'm trapped.
You wouldn't realize I'm dreaming.
It isn't real,
But it is real,
My mind,
Makes me think it might be.
The air is tight and stale
Suffocating me.
Perhaps someone is smothering me.
I mean,
I'm asleep right?
I hold my hands against these tight walls,
They seem to be tightening
Pushing against me.
I can feel everything
How is this possible?
I'm not awake.
This is all fake
Nothing happened,
Yet, I'm feeling all of it.
My heart is beating fast,
Sweat dotting my neck.
That's when I hear a small voice,
You're not real.
The walls are closing in.
I'm trapped.
You wouldn't realize I'm dreaming.
It isn't real,
But it is real,
My mind,
Makes me think it might be.
The air is tight and stale
Suffocating me.
Perhaps someone is smothering me.
I mean,
I'm asleep right?
I hold my hands against these tight walls,
They seem to be tightening
Pushing against me.
I can feel everything
How is this possible?
I'm not awake.
This is all fake
Nothing happened,
Yet, I'm feeling all of it.
My heart is beating fast,
Sweat dotting my neck.
That's when I hear a small voice,
You're not real.
