dreams and sobs

dreams and sobs
stuck fast in my throat
as i watch what i want
fade away.

it seems to easy to reach
to grasp tightly
within my fingers
and yet
and yet
it's too far away.

how can i stand
to watch everyone else
achieve their dreams
so peacefully?

i debate
climbing into bed
and hiding beneath
the duvet for a few days
until the world
looks a little bit
brighter.
