Melancholy Skies and Dark Sunshine

I had a dream I killed myself and then someone wished to bring me back

Melancholy skies and dark sunshine

Gray hopes and dreams are still dreams

Plotting to be brought to fruition

Only made into reality by effort

But how?

When all the fight in me is gone

When the world seems to be caving in

When everyday it is a struggle

To do

To live

To be

My heart is swarmed with pain

And my shoulders are brought down so low

Lower than my pleas for help

To escape the nightmare actuality of life

Pleading with myself

To try

To care

To dream
