-Oxymoron-

10 4 8
                                    

I am an oxymoron in a strange silly sort of way,

I walk my life in nighttime visits to the only place a metaphor such as myself could manage calling home.

I am afloat and adrift in a daze dreaming during the day,

I hold a hand out to the reflection I cannot stand hoping my heart isn't set in stone.

I am a lucid nightmare.

Why aren't I content to be reborn behaving behind my blushing stare?

I am a contradiction to my original jurisdiction,

A fool with a clustered head filled with fabric, string, and spool.

It's stupid being stuck feeling sorry for not forgiving myself.

It's stupid not understanding my own limitations of happy or health.

I am tired and wish to call it a night,

But the daylight shines still in spite.

So for now I remain as I am and for now I guess that's alright.

-end-
