"Wide awake"

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
