Something then nothing -
A parrot on my left shoulder
But it is not real
Zack Ripley Mar 2021
You never knew how I felt
Cause I didn't want you to know
But now you're ready to leave
and I don't want you to go.
You taught me to laugh
When I wanted to cry.
You're not just my love;
You're my sun, stars and sky.
How can I tell you how I really feel
When every time I'm with you
Nothing ever seems real
A M Ryder Nov 2020
Seems unreal
And abstract
A string of zeros
That exists in some
Strange place
Of its own

Everything feels dreamlike

Nothing feels real

With each strike

Of a worn match

Smoking but never catching fire

Everything has felt dreamlike lately. Not sure why.

It is hard to find words,
That rhymes with the other,
Words that are evidently sweet,
That can make your heart feel warm and tender.

Poets are clever,
They build worlds in words,
That can make you shiver,
Poets, they are brilliant liars.

Eyes wide open, Let me close it for a while.
Sitting on a chair, I never felt so fright.
Dwelling into my thoughts, I feel so caged.
Soreness in my eyes, do I need a cure?
Opt to close it, with moist eyes.
It will hunt me down, I whispered inside my mind.
My time has begin, Now I'm in this dimension.
This torment Yes!, I need to suffer.
It feels so real, when it's so unreal.
I can't decide, how long it will occur.
My eyes are closed, I don't know when it will open!
Life isn't fair,
But fair is unseen.
And what is unseen is unreal,
But what's unreal is your story
That you would one day share.
The idea for this one is inspired by 'Your Time Is Gonna Come' from Led Zeppelin.

Also by the quote 'If you're going through hell, keep going.' from Winston Churchill.
When the world becomes black
Im almost safe
The impossible becomes possible
And the unreal becomes real
My darkness is kept low
And my imagination flys high
But that can only last for so long
The world will come to color
The impossible will escape out of reach
And the unreal will hide away
My darkness will creep back
And my imagination will be shoved in

But eventually I will go back to the blackness,
Forever
We all will
And then we will be safe forever
Falling Asleep and Waking Up.....Then Falling Asleep Forever
