Shut Up
When I wake up tomorrow, will my pencils be sharpened?
When I wake, will my carpet be free of dirt and dust, and what will await outside the window?
Will I be home, or will I be in a five star hotel, halfway across the world?
Hidden.
Safe.
I don’t want to wake up tomorrow
I fear what it has left to say to me
And I don’t want to sleep tonight
Because I fear that the dream will end
I don’t want to talk with anyone now
And I don’t want to be alone
I laughed all day, so why am I in tears?
Because I fear that the dream will end
Shut up.
