Working from sun rise to sun set
only attempting to buy happiness
punching numbers, his hated career.
ignorance is his bliss.
he tried to make an easy escape
an escape into petty things.
distancing himself from the world.
Fast cars and his large tv define him.
stuck in an endless maze of cubicles.
he grew up too fast, too soon.
wishing that he was still a child.
wishing to still dreamed a childs dream.
he could have almost anything that he wants,
so in a way he is living that dream...
but he spends his nights alone, at home.
making friends with the shadows on the wall.
trying hard to find something real...
something that actually matters.
he wants out
but doesnt feel like searching for the way.
though its so close, not far out of reach.
all he need do is open his eyes
and see that his way out
is his wife and his child.
