You exhaust me, oh night with your brewing blanket of beauty with the sounds of air circulating through vents with your dark fingers that demand to hold my attention. let me go let me go. Words from the soul flow only when I'm with you, oh night. There is no right without wrong but where do I belong in the blurred lines of morality. I wish I was this, I wish I was that Are you a person or a lab rat under supervision of the Media, a doctor who specializes in the swing of society. Caught up in accepting mediocrity You forget how frickin' great you could be. You get in the car and fasten your seat belt yet the car isn't moving at all. It isn't moving at all 'cause you're in the wrong seat. Swing over your feet and step on the gas, and watch all the time standing pass. But you're not this and you're not that. You're not a rat or in a car. You're in a bed, lying down, trying to tune out the sound of humming vents that echo emptiness into your ears. "Fears," it whispers.

Something I created long ago in the middle of the night, on the small screen of my phone.
