Plea from the Drowning Girl

Plea from the Drowning Girl
(Living in the Reality of a Delusion)

So I can't sleep tonight,
But it's fine, it's alright
Cause I don't want to dream, anyway
And I won't wake up and be okay.

I'm still living at a constant 4 am
I can't figure out who I am
I just want to see the sun one more time
I just want one more day while you are mine

Let me forget that tomorrow will change
That my life will never be the same
And you are not my everything
Let me pretend that I'm not in pain
And my soul is not a dying flame
Let me lie awake.

    I like it, it's quite original. Though, my dreams are better than my reality, so I rather sleep. I loved the end, specially "Let me pretend that I'm not in pain". It's true, sometimes all we want is to pretend for a while, sometimes even forever.

    Good job!

    "I'm still living at a constant 4 am
    I can't figure out who I am"

    This was a very interesting rhyme, I liked it. The poem itself was short, but it was pretty good for one of the many short poems that I have read. I liked it.
