Living Nightmare

Motion of Dreams

I feel like I'm moving in slow motion.

It's like running in a dream.

My legs are moving as fast as they can.

But I'm not really going anywhere.

Like a hamster on it's wheel,

I'm running in circles.

Everything seems to be passing me by.

I can't seem to catch up to my life.

This is no dream of mine.

This is a nightmare I can't escape.

It's a hellish terror of my own creation.

My mind is my own worst enemy.
