blurred clarity
The thickness of the fog in confusing,
I can't seem to find my way.
I'm running in circles,
trying to survive just one more day
The moon casts a ring of eerie glow,
illuminating only what I can see.
But it is what is not in my vision,
that I wish would let me be.
Who or whatever it is is close,
I can almost hear it's breath.
luminesent sulfurous ribbons of it's exhalation surround me.
the only feeling is that of death.
I can do nothing more.
I can run no longer.
It's time to turn,
and face the monster.
trying now to see
what I've escaped my whole life.
all that's there is a reflection.
realization cut's like a knife.
my emotions and deeds
are plain to see
in the large sized mirror
right in front of me.
I can't seem to find my way.
I'm running in circles,
trying to survive just one more day
The moon casts a ring of eerie glow,
illuminating only what I can see.
But it is what is not in my vision,
that I wish would let me be.
Who or whatever it is is close,
I can almost hear it's breath.
luminesent sulfurous ribbons of it's exhalation surround me.
the only feeling is that of death.
I can do nothing more.
I can run no longer.
It's time to turn,
and face the monster.
trying now to see
what I've escaped my whole life.
all that's there is a reflection.
realization cut's like a knife.
my emotions and deeds
are plain to see
in the large sized mirror
right in front of me.
