It came to pass. (It didn't come to stay.)


As I sit here

Alone in the dark

Thinking, thinking, thinking

Boredom creeps into my bones

Taking over my body

Making my tiredness expand

Sleepiness hanging on my eyelids

Thoughts popping into my head

Like bubbles being blown my way

But quick to pop

At the sound of my mind 

The thoughts of life, emotions, choices

All so confusing

Just a jumble of mess

To add to the pile

Voices screaming things at me

Voices that ring into oblivion

Like the face of happiness and sadness

One telling me what I want

The other saying the opposite

Past memories dancing terribly

Through my mind

Squishing my brain

With each awful leap they take

Things I want to do

Float pass me on a piece of paper

Things that will never happen

Faces appear in front of my eyes

Faces with dissappointed looks

In the end

I give into the boredom

And fall asleep
