When you Spend the Day Alone

You wake from your dreams when the sunlight becomes to bright to bear
you retreat within the covers trying to hide from its light
hoping to return to the land of dreams, and the valley of nightmares
where the horrible reality, seems better than your own

You get up and stumble into the bathroom and look in the mirror
you look as good as you would want
but yet you still want to smash the mirror into pieces

youre not going anywhere, or seeing anyone, but you fix your hair anyway
just because you want to see yourself in perfected image

You return to your room, and strum that sweet melody on your guitar
remembering yesterdays regrets in musical poetry
and teardrops fall on your guitar
when the words become to heavy to hold
on the lowest chords

Do you remember when you had a life to love
do you remember when you didnt hold everything back
Do you remember when the person everyone percieved, was the truth of who you were

You do when youre alone

You remember who you were then
and who you are now

and how you grew into your pains and regrets

strangely, it isnt clear

But now i remember yesterday
how i sat in class
with my smirk looks
and my yellow binder
and my secret monalouge
inner narration
of why things unfold around me
yet i open nothing....
