Countless Seconds Racing Through Limited Hours

Nights turn into shallow mornings
And the days are now lost
To never ending hours
Where memories blur together
I am creating a world
Where I alone exist
Haunted by familiar shadows
I grasp at with hope
Only to slip further each time
Into clarity or confusion
The path only gets longer
Choices fewer
There was so much color
Scattered on every wall
Now every mirror reflects darkness
And the light is left in dreams untouched
I keep replaying the same song
Without the melody
It echoes to me
Repeated actions unrecognized
Until the regret has long set in
Leaving past, present and future
Clinging to each thought
Leaving separation impossible
Creating an instant insanity
Locking exits that were never entrances
I am here
Always awake
While others are forever walking in their sleep.
