Drowning Again
 May 2015 null
Sky
The sun has disappeared again
Enrobed in folds of wispy gray
Shadows wrap around my heart
and squeeze.

The demons are dancing again
Twirling each other 'round and 'round
Stomping footprints into my head
so I never forget.

My blood is starting to boil again
Bubble and fizz and search for escape
Screaming at me to find a sharp edge
so I can weep tears of red.

I want to live
and
I want to die.

I want to scream
and
I want to cry.

I want to bleed
and
I want to heal.

I want to be numb
and
I want to feel.

Sunlit Lies

The sun may have blinded you,
but I know the truth,
for I dance in the shadows.

I know that those smiles
only come from pain and lies
and manufactured blue skies.

I know that the monsters
dance in your heads every day
Very little can make them go away.

I know that constant lies
are the only way we know to live
Stare at the sun, let it blind you

No!

Come with me, into Moon’s silver glow
Come and learn the truth, and find
that true happiness is found in the night.
