It was blue underneath the stars again,
Both, the twinkle in your eye and in the sky are lost somewhere else.
I cried when I realized the obvious.
As the sky sinks into eternal  kaledesope of my own imagination.
Swirling orange with pink and blue.

Empty eyes tell a story.
Once, there was a reason I believed in you.
Back when we were laughing.
Now I'm stuck wishing for all the rainbows to evaporate this depression in the basement.
I blame myself because I should have known better.
and suddenly I remember all that was invested and how easy it is to be blinded by someone.

Our dreams were our paradise, once upon a time.
When sheets were clouds in heaven-
And wonderland was somewhere we called home.
Paradise was somewhere,
When magic lit the moonlight with satisfaction and opened doors to let me in.
Somehow laying there life made sense
then time passed us just like in a movie, even as it rained.

But it falls apart.

A heart is tougher than a bulletproof jacket.
The ones you hurt are usually innocent.
Someones daughter, sister, mother, friend.
This time, it was me.
But today's sunrise is another simple miracle,
Something not to take for granted..
Because troubles always make a survivor
