that truth injected a liquid coal that was to pulse my veins forever. pulled back the blinds and shrouded me in darkness. extinguished the flames and charred the place where I housed our dreams. Cracking the concrete that lead to our door. devoured the life surrounding the perimeter. engulfed me in a blackness I won't soon forget. misled by my own disillusions of who I wanted you to be. the pages of this fairy tale are blank, and would better make for kindling. Rather start new, or keep warm for that matter, I chose to walk toward the lake alone. feet bound by lies I toss this to the cliffs, broken with the others at the bottom. misled by my own disillusion of who I wanted you to be. I weakened myself at the knees and fell to my own imagination. Dragons and princess, I sword-struck myself silly. these scars are not my own. star-gaze reminiscence we ALL fall down. my faith is absent. I lay the ghost of you down to sleep. Kiss your forehead and destroy the reflection of myself I never wish to see again. Shrouded, blank, Shrouded, blank. Feet  bound  by  lies you hung bleeding water into a rapidly growing puddle. I watch the sun set in our tear stained canvas sky. -r0
