You're right I did it I'm a liar and a manipulator and I like it Until I get caught then its no fun No good being at fault though the dark is my faithful companion Better for me the pain invokes a sense of peace all is calm, something to remind me to feel at all a stab in the gut to know I'm alive I ache for a release, to get out of this skin sink into the nothing, collide with the universe and in that moment feel free Until reality tightens the noose and I'm back on the chain again. Running to the end of my leash and all I can do is bark The world is not big enough, I stretch to the sky my hands are full, the weight on my shoulders is heavy the pain is welcome I open myself to it freely aren't you comfortable sleeping next to me in my nightmare I trade this face for that one aren't you happy, content with the facade Until I let you see me empty and you are forced to confront the mirage happiness is a state of mind all is temporary your light is too much, my enemy the crimson sun what is to become of us in the dark all turns to dust the truth lost in lust feels good until we dont spread it thick until it all runs out Poetry Ad-Free Upgrades Vote for this poem
