Hush my demons please let me breathe, Hush my demons, I wish for an instant relief I try to propel myself but no air is coming in I try to shift forward but I migrate backward Please don’t be taken aback, There is no emotion akin to moving onward without breathing in Hush my demons, please make it stop Let me leave, I can cope Hush my demons, I want to start from scratch with no single patch

Yellow flowers had comforted my soul, Overflowed my mind with images Yellow flowers, A splatter of color amidst all the greenery, Ahead, in front of my balcony Oh, memories Bring so much comfort and distress Embraced by such fervor My mind plunged deep into a pool full of images My mind moved swiftly recollecting images that once composed my life Oh, memories, I find myself amidst the yellow splatters that belonged to a place I once called home.

Nightmares were not seeking me at nights Instead, I was being haunted during daytime My nightmares have been disguised as my real desires They say you're what your heart aspires But my mind took the matter into its own hands I woke up and never realized that I was never wide awake I woke up to see the sun fully shining It bleakly shone through me My only hope was to get one last sight Of how would my life had turned around If I were truly wide awake Ahead I saw your face, Yet I could not distinguish I could not make sense If that were your true self that was showing Or just your bleak self I am sorry, that I couldn't see it before I'm sorry for whatever I had said I had pushed you aside Without even realizing so Ascending higher the crooked stairs Your face had shown up I could not hold it inside no more I smiled and  wished That this time my mind won't intervene I kept going, Never realizing I was still soundly asleep
