“Just a Dream”

That day I was tired, and I went to sleep:

The next day, I realized I had to make a choice

Stay in bed, or leave my warm, comfortable bed

I was disappointed when I made my decision

but I knew it was the right choice

I decided to get out of bed, because of school

Then, I got ready for school,

slid down the stairs on a mattress,

And left my warm and safe home,

my protection, from the open world

I was running from the thoughts that created regret,

I wanted to turn around and go back,

but I already made my decision,

And I realize now, I regret it

I had to live with it

I was expecting to be there on time,

but I wasn’t too sure

It felt like I was running in circles

I couldn’t stop because I would fall into a void,

Then I realized… that choice made all the difference
