Drained

By Exodus

I wrote this out of nowhere....I hope you guys enjoy and i ask that you guys please comment on this.....Thanks so much..




I’ve wasted 16 hours
Staring into the black
Of my eyelids
Nothing..
Just dreams..
That make no sense
Disney World,
The firecracker House
Being thrown into the air
Being so scared, and telling them to stop.
No one cares to listen.
Playdough pussycats
Red and green
And you.
Brandon,
You were walking
Dressed as a King
With your black and colorful posse
As I crawled on the floor
Begging to be invisible

I told a woman
A blonde, Way to happy
Woman
To wear men’s jeans
As her friends looked at me
Mouths wide open
Daylight outside
Typical Florida
I was the snake being
Rolled into
The dirt
A Hispanic boy,
Who wanted fun?
Pushed me under the playground
To be forgotten
I know the reason behind this feeling
But it still hides itself from me.
What does our mind tell us?
When were left unconscious

    If you could find a way to sell tickets for watching your dreams... eh, nevermind... you wouldn't make money, cause I'd steal them all.

    I cannot believe the imagery.This is amazing.I find the best place for Epiphany is somewhere between conscious and not.Semi-consciousness is where I realize myself and my life, usually.
