telling me to find my way out of the dark, like cold hands on my neck, like blankets on my spine, like a distraction in the form of thoughts about her. the all-encompassing fact haunts me that i am important, and that that alone is my burden to bear. like sleepy sweet eyes and the jagged edge of his canines, i'm wrought to accept that the validity of my very real purpose can be found in the eyes of my Father. i am so scared. the night weans and wears, but somehow the lights are on and the falsified bright burns red through my eyelids.

telling me to find my way out of the dark, like cold hands on my neck, like blankets on my spine, like a distraction in the form of thoughts about her. the all-encompassing fact haunts me that i am important, and that that alone is my burden to bear. like sleepy sweet eyes and the jagged edge of his canines, i'm wrought to accept that the validity of my very real purpose can be found in the eyes of my Father. i am so scared. the night weans and wears, but somehow the lights are on and the falsified bright burns red through my eyelids.
