poison
i woke up late last night in a panic as i realized i drank the poison. i feel going through my veins what gave me pleasure but now only brings pain. i stare wide-eyed at the sky calling down some kind of cure, i venture out into the night to give my soul a chance to breathe and a chance to scream and a spot under the moonlight to let her dance it all away. they stare at me through their windows, their empty eyes look at me in wonder, thinking how strange it is that i'm alive as my candle still burns.
