Slipping me away from you
"Oh it doesn't matter how you hide
Find you if we're wanting to
So slide back down and close your eyes
Sleep a while
You must be tired... "

Lethal Injection

These are your last words on death row, what are they going to think about you now?
Not that it makes a difference to you; you're already six feet under.
Your memory is left behind, and those words are what you set yourself on.
A guillotine of self destruction, or a pedestal of redemption.
Fall off, rise up; you're still stuck in the ground.

Warzone

Confliction and forbidden thoughts
They cross paths and like missiles turn to eachother
All intentions in destroying the other
But instead they freeze and fall
Freefall
Into the blue of open, unconscious eyes
Where they blink and are suddenly aware

There's light and dark. But if you're living in the light all of the time, you can't stand the dark. You can't understand it. And sometimes, it's clearer than the light. In the dark there's truth, because you can't see. You have to believe to see. When you're in the light, you see to believe. You're surrounded by facades and fakes, and at times, there's a lack of knowing if there's truth or deceit. Darkness opens up a knew portal to perception. Truth. And in this way, my perspective has changed. I lived in the light, not daring to stray, and because of that I didn't feel comfortable being me. I felt lonely. And now I've discovered this 'dark' place. But for being dark, it should be an oxymoron. Because yes, it can be sad; it can be scary. But that's life. It's no hiding, and showing your face as who YOU are. Not who you want to be, or who you pretend to be. With knowledge comes sorrow, but also the choice to find more than the sorrow.
