The world is too bright when it’s full of lies. Darkness lacks without any trust. How I wish to dim the deceit, For too much can hide behind florescent lights. Cold penetrates What once was kept warm by the golden world in the celestial sky. Soon to be a myth of long ago. Pity will cease For not a tear will be seen For cries will be lost In the midst of agony, Felt by a world too far gone from all verities. Rain will fall to wash away The remnants of falsities To reveal, even to blind eyes, All the truths long forgotten. A world of fragile things Hidden by far too many a luminous glow. Rapture all the shadows; No longer apparitions of the hidden psych. Free they are To roam a deceptive world, To spill every obscure secret. Like the crimson blood shed By countless who fought Through the murky seas of deception. Shattering is all will be When the sun fails And we must confront the face in the cracked mirror.
