I am in a world
Where stories of peace were once told
When time envied it and sold
What people can't be able to holdI was a human full of emptiness
But now, I'm controlling my own dream
Moving my hands, feets with awareness
At a vast, shining realmWhat am I gazing?
A world that seems alive and moving
The last time I know I was sleeping
'til the opening of my eyes, hopingHoping to get out of the real world
Hoping to get out of the unending cold
Inside my heart, feeling ennui
The rise and fall of my life, I can seeNow, my dreams came true
I am nowhere mentally to be seen
I am in a place I have no clue
In a place unforeseenThe falling of the maple leaves
Sliding through a soft, moist breeze
And the droplets I can be able to stop
And the choice to resume its dropI walk in a further distance
Wearing a confident but comfy stance
A formidable mountain which attracted me
As the fog slowly covered the peak entirelyWhat a peaceful world I dream
I wonder what universe I came
And if ever there are people who felt the same
With me, in this place, it would be a great dreamer teamBut, it seems like I'm all alone
Nothing to share of with the beauty here
Whenever the sky becomes clear
And whenever the sun shoneI'm all alone
All alone
I hope this paper, someone can hear my tone
And know my presence with a place unknownThough, I don't like you to save me
I want someone who'll join me
Dreaming here, nothing to be afraid of
Unlike in a real world of danger, so toughI may be alone and lonely
Even so, from the dark, I am free
There might be someone who is worried
With my body being paledForgive me for prioritizing my sake
I'm sorry, I am a coward to wake.
