Dreams on Replay

Scrollin’ through life, thumb’s in a marathon,

Late-night thoughts, got the TV static on.

Hopes packed tight, suitcase full of stars,

But the zipper keeps bustin’, dreams spillin’ like jars.

Eyes half-closed, but my mind’s wide awake,

Drippin' in nostalgia, pool of past mistakes.

Can’t rewind, no VCR, just play,

But every loop feels like yesterday.

TikTok seconds, they vanish in the air,

Caught in the scroll, but I'm goin’ nowhere.

Dreams on replay, heart’s on shuffle,

Tryna make it out, but the world's a puzzle.

Dreams on replay, stuck in the gray,

Hope’s the Wi-Fi when I’m lost in the fray.

Late-night snacks, ramen steam in the glow,

Laptop light’s the moon, casting shadows below.

Thoughts ricochet, pinball brain on tilt,

Tryna build a castle, but the sand won’t sit still.

Friends all ghosts in the group chat grave,

Text unsent, but the memories stay.

Hoodie hugs tight like a makeshift shield,

World’s a battlefield, tryna find what’s real.
