Every Boy's Dream

Dark clouds blanket
This eternal desert.
In such lonely solitude,
You emote with no effort.

This life I live,
So tranquil and boring,
Has instilled within me
A need for exploring.

I want to travel;
To escape and forget.
Detour from reality
Is my favorite yet.

This current affair;
The excuse I call "life",
Has lost its excitement;
Sorrow put out the fire.

Instead of bad vices,
Like drinking and cocaine,
I want the Life of Sword;
Leveling toward high fame.

i want to mask feelings,
I want to let go.
I'd be quick to choose fantasy,
If only given that road.

Instead of dying slowly
With the regrets that build,
I'd rather die with honor
Fighting for my Swordsman's Guild.

The promise of escape
Is so far beyond my reach.
If only the pain that stained my life,
Could be washed away by bleach.

Instead of dwelling solely
On how to patch my heart,
I'd take the easy way,
And just press restart.

To live in that world,
Would be the greatest reality.
The damage of my sorrow
Wouldn't diminish my "HP".

This grieving must end,
The sorrow's got to be stopped.
I need to control the hate,
Emotions must be locked.

Dark clouds blanket
This eternal desert.
I'm just one level away
From ruling the universe.
