Go Back To Sleep (Poem)

Go Back To Sleep
I'm scared
I woke up
But I wish I could go back to sleep
So that is what I did just for another hour or two
When I get up I don't know where to start
But my mind already has
Throughout the day the same thoughts race through my head
The impending doom that awaits is already here
The hourglass bottom is becoming full
Every moment is filled with fear
Talking to people in disconnection
Do they know what I am thinking?
Here comes another wave of thought
Corporations, Institutions, conceptualization and mind control
Our entire lives has been fabricated
We don't even know what it means to know
Fed poison food
Breed disease in pools
You are crazy
You are crazy if you think its gonna be ok
The repetition
get up
make money
eat
sleep
It's all programmed
There is something wrong here
I shouldn't be remembering the future
Love? Compassion?
Is it still real?
Its getting late
Paranoia sets in
Seeing things that are not there just for a second
Something paranormal is following now
Feeling my heart race as I sprint for the house
They are right behind me with there same old game
But I don't want to play
Shut off the lights
Locked the doors
But they find a way inside
Opening the fridge door
Someone came through backdoor
I just want something to eat
Hunched over the window-sill
Peering down at the suspect
Are these eyes of judgment
I rush to bed and cover myself head to toe
Maybe they wont come in here
I am safe for the moment
4 hours
 I lay there while they stare from across the room
It feels a little empty once they are gone
I can't sleep but It seems to be the only way out of this mess
As long as my dreams are safe that is
After hours in agony I doze off only to relive yesterday tomorrow
Oh another child could never know
A pain that repeats then grows some more
Just go back to sleep
It will all be alright once the storm blows over

Mother Pretty girl you are always trying to keep us from going but that is what you most want Your times comes hurling towards the end I know you miss being vibrant The days progressed too quick Now you have to let go of us to forgive Everyone will be alright and if they are not Then you did all you could You are still pretty in old age and all I know you feel the weight and decay The only thing to do is  Go with it and hope you are gone before you are feeble I ask you to be optimistic Coming Down Give me surface responses But the rope is getting tighter and she needs a break Don't let yourself be carried away Help before it is too late
