i am what my monsters see me as;
this bed swallowed my feet.
roars lap at my ears as seconds pass;
insomnia begins to take a seat.

my eyelids are midnight curtains,
that the killer entombs himself within.
Mister Reality behind illusory drapes, uncertain,
a  whimsical gust of wind is all needed for him.

i glued my sullen eyelids to a close,
hoping to escape this quaking ground;
let the sun fall like a petal from a rose,
hope reality will never be found.

avoidance, the path that my trembling feet find,
molded the monsters to shadows within my mind.

merely an iridescent adolescence.
flickering soul-bulb, a match for the pyre
i could not handle her fickle essence--
her gasoline in my trembling fire.

i fell into love with the moon and stars,
burning up passion in the atmosphere;
changing in space but never away to far.
immutable freedom in my worlds here.

she left me interstellar drunken enticed,
my spirit burning brighter than ever before,
seizing every moment, photon spiced--
night skies will be my companion forevermore.

burning bright, soul hypnotizing the moon;
fading skies, my love will join my eyes soon.

— The End —
