When I am happy,
I am brighter than the most radiant light,
My mind a conflagrant forest;
a blinding light devours wrong and right,
making me believe, unlike Icarus,
the sun could not burn my wings;
she could never shun my deliverance.
When I am sad,
I sit stuck on things once had,
I am blinded by a radiant light,
so I retreat,
to a jet black night;
The sun a lion,
my soul it's meat,
the sun is glutton,
yet he does not eat
When I am happy,
my mind is hot as stars,
and my darkness lies home trapped,
behind honeycomb bars.
Unthreatened by my demons,
with their black suits and white cigars
