I saw the other side of you today The flip side to your coin  Beneath the sparkle of joviality and passion When we strip away the gloss of illicit corners and barely touching hands Rinsing away the heady throws of passion and your alcoholic aftertaste  I saw your rage The underbelly There was no beauty in your hurricane  Only fear and anger  The constellations I once saw in your eyes turning to pitch  Maybe they were just reflections of my own I saw you change.  I don't think I know you anymore  I'm not sure I ever did
