I've been gone
for long
thinking about tales
living lies
aches
I've brought you stories
of
escalating hurt
unspoken words
transparent shadows
bear with me
while I shade some of these
bare truths
us humans
who love to see the desperate
cling to these fragile life
us humans
who've grown used to horror
you think there is no other way
us humans
who seek freedom
to commit mistakes,
sometimes we don't have a choice
and sometimes we do
us humans
extremely, afraid of death
who do you turn to
when the night is at its darkest
