Dreaming in the darkness

A Dark time

Dreaming in the darkness

Nothing to think about

No imagination at all

Just staring at the wall

Wondering if this was all

Been here before

Just sitting on the floor

Nothing to enthrall

Didn't know what to say

This would never happen during the day

Found another place to lay

Everything seemed okay

Thought I needed to get away

Couldn't believe the starkness

Right out next to the park bench

Thinking about what to invent

Wondering if time could be better spent

Thinking about the sparseness

Not knowing if it is worth going

Everything started flowing

It was seemingly remarkable

Being able to consider something achievable

It seemed agreeable

Couldn't seem to believe it now

But it would soon be real

Wouldn't know if it was understood

Was doing everything I could

Knew it was just a matter of time

Then everything would be fine

Needed to know that this was the right way to go

These were just some thoughts

Just some ideas of course

Only my personal view

Didn't have anything to lose

Maybe there would be some newness

Just dreaming in the darkness

For Fun
