Array ( [sid] => 13505 [catid] => 1 [aid] => Mick [title] => broken [time] => 2003-02-28 07:00:00 [hometext] => dont read this. [bodytext] => sleep has come to me at last
it leaves only to fade into the past
the dying sun has yet to set
but my eyes are already at rest
calm, like the ignorance of a newborn,
only to wake into chaos.
the ambience slowly fills my mind
i miss all i left behind
a setting sun shines dull rays into my eyes
and i breathe in the air to release a sigh
theres a sense of being weak even after all that sleep
theres a sense of still being tired
so i lie down...
and close my eyes....to escape this world
that makes me unhappy
in a world that craves perfection.
