at 7 years old, I watched silently as the universe gave out and fell around my ankles there were no elegant stars dancing or galaxies moving in bright spirals it was just a morbid hole of darkness that had an odd sense of beauty it pulled me in the way Gatsby pulled Daisy in for their last dance there were no flowers in my hair or sparkles in my eyes there were blood stains on my favorite shirt and haunting scenes behind every blink now every time I close my eyes the demons follow me or he follows me and I guess you can just never escape darkness

I suppose this is dark, but so was my childhood
at 7 years old, I watched silently as the universe gave out and fell around my ankles there were no elegant stars dancing or galaxies moving in bright spirals it was just a morbid hole of darkness that had an odd sense of beauty it pulled me in the way Gatsby pulled Daisy in for their last dance there were no flowers in my hair or sparkles in my eyes there were blood stains on my favorite shirt and haunting scenes behind every blink now every time I close my eyes the demons follow me or he follows me and I guess you can just never escape darkness
