Lost on the dark side of the moon Though it does not exist When push comes to shove You hurt me. I love you but why do you continue to cause me pain? Drowning in myself Filling with dread Can’t see the light Nothing is refracting back to me, so all Alone is how I’m seen Even though you are right There standing next to me. Without you I’d die because We are one, interconnected Fate intertwined But you make bad decisions You always put me down How can you hurt me When you do not exist? You are so real to me Fighting back with every breath you make, stealing every breath I try to take, against you I don’t stand A chance and you and I both know that, I crumple easily my life is in the palm of your hand you stand strong, drawing energy from the negativity within me and all that surrounds me. The dark side of the moon shines bright, it’s light is overwhelming There’s an inside duel, One has now become two.

Dark Side of the Moon
As I slit my wrists the words keep bleedin’, mixing with the tears and recognized fears. Those hurtful words and ugly sayings. I cut again and continue bleedin’, away the hate, anger and frustration. Venting is my self mutilation. there are no scars to hide when I am done, I just wipe my tears as my sadness fades and the dawn passes to another day...

Words are my release
It was my pride and joy. When I picked it up and My lips kissed the cold metal I felt instantly at home. My fingers pressed the three pearled keys up and down as if getting re-aquatinted, always one being a rebel. The spit valve needed a new cork for it dripped like the tears of a loved one, longing to be held. And the gold paint was chipping, revealing an ugly shade of brown. But as your hand glided across the paper, the blemishes and imperfections disappeared. And the world now saw it through my eyes. It did not shine or glitter in the sunlight, but it hung, proudly in black and white. A masterpiece.
