Black Ice.

So busy wrapped up in the way that the stars were glowing that I couldn't possibly foresee the dark path before me. Touched what I've never touched before, seen what I've never seen before. So busy searching for a shooting star that I would never see that I paid no attention to my blindside. Naive to my inner demons "Lolli gagging" through a field of dreams blocking my bright eyes from my realities. Dancing through life as if I had nine lives. Kept my mind angled in a way that could keep my fears at a far distance Ears open but never listening. So I soon became distracted with the way the moon seemed to call my name from a near distance. Touched what I've never touched before seen what I've never seen before. Snapped, crackled, and cringed into the real world. Like a baby exiting the womb frightened by new sounds and new air.
