Sleep Within A Dream

Sleep Within A Dream

A Poem by Zhavy
"

Less of not being on the same page.... More of we've been reading different books

"

Caught in-between cries and a laugh

There’s no such thing as making it last

Never no light when all fades to the black

Can’t regret the fact You won’t ever get it back 


It’s been on my chest to check her

But life’s all a game of chess


It’s a plan than attack 

They’ll redact the mistakes When they know no one can take my place  

Notice you never look me in my eye

Had to ask the question why?


It’s only fate

The fake can never face the truth 

So I do what I can

Young & reckless I live Until I am a man 

But it’s tougher to manage the stress 

These prayers to God Have me forgetting I’m blessed 

I’ve been dealing with the less So I’m concerned for the more

Forget the regrets No time for regression

I’ve been pinching cigarettes

Smoking regrets I can’t seem to forget

Weaving tangled webs Ending up caught up in the net


Face to face with death

Reminiscing what a breath is like


Stuck in confines Forced to read between the lines

Craft another line, creating other rhymes

I been Super 8 but you bring me to cloud 9 

9 times out of 10 I would’ve been like other men

Outrunning all my problems You helped me to solve em

I solemnly swear Her fingers only taper the tears in my eyes

I’m just getting by & I got nothing left

It just isn’t right I can’t tap in the fight In-between my mind & my heart

I’ve been losing the flame All I need is spark

When the feelings are sparse

Her love brings together every piece
