It’s 4 in the morning

i should be sleeping

but instead I’m writing this.

I’m thinking about you

and what you’re thinking about

what you look like fast asleep,

do you think of me?

do you think about what happened?

Because I do.

do your memories come in dreams?

dreams because you’re happy about it?

nightmares seem more fitting for this.

I mean, don’t you think?

seeing as how during daylight it is

a nightmare, i mean

thats what this is, yes?

or is it just a game?

A game for you?

there don’t seem to be any rules

there aren’t any ways to get out of jail

the funny thing is, in this game only one player can end up in jail

but when not in jail, that player is on pause

NOT OUT

so how can you finish the game?

see now you’re stuck

until that player gets out of jail

and with all that time, guilt will eat you up.

then who’s living the nightmare?

so, where’s my get out of jail free card?
