this facade has cost me damages beyond repair bridges to ashes glitter to sand i feel undeserving of looking up the sky how foolish of me to think i'd ever shine as bright my fear coalesce into a person and i am running running as fast as i can exhaustion sitting heavy on my back chains wrapping around my ankles i trip over the roots of the past and suddenly i am falling down a rabbit hole with no end in sight the stars, they are more stunning than i recall i have never seen as many as tonight oh, they twinkle, they wink at me as i fall down deeper into the earth dear stars, you must forgive me for my shameless mistake, okay? okay.
