Paradise Is In The Moment. by Scott Simmons

I’ll often collapse into my bed completely unable to move or think.
And then eventually cry I myself to sleep without shedding a single tear.

This internal sadness can’t be satisfied nor can the emptiness ever be filled.

There is often a secret pain behind the laughter of a raving madman.
Yet there is seldom another soul that will ever know it.

For these words can only go so far to be able to explain my true meaning.
