Self-Indulged


inside the safety of my room
no one see me and I see no one,
windows closed and curtains pulled
light only comes from above,
a bed stands ready for the taking
clothes hang down for wearing,
a Siamese curled up in the corner
waiting for my arrival...
time plays out on the radio silently
paintings on the wall were
years ago painted by a wannabee,
inside the safety of my mind
I see the world through a tainted lens
focused on dreams and fantasies
lived out in dark reality...
a criminal offense some say but
everyone's asleep at the wheel,
stray thoughts bend the rules and
I am inundated with rules...
time steps across the line of regret
and I am finally allowed to sleep.
