All this hate and madness is happening around me.
That it just pains my soul on the inside and out.
To know that I can’t follow my dreams.
Sometimes it feels like it could shatter @ my fingertips, if I hold on to tight. Sometimes I go to sleep @ night with the walls caving in on me, and possibly suffocating me along with my dreams. If only, if only I had some green to follow these dreams. That could carry me to a day that I don’t have to worry, about my dreams fading away.
