Today was a lovely day

[suxstobenadia]

I live for the shadows of sorrow
She creeps in with the grace of time
Inching towards the lines I draw around myself
Moments of light to outline the pain
Sweetheart, She hates you with a splendid wicked
She spills over every curve as it moves
The goodness of the Sun has no hiding place
She'll run as fast as she came
And dwindle in the stain of the day
Darling, close your eyes while your curse takes its form
Smooth and angry without concern for her entrance
The days will come and let her cover fall
Her routine is by invitation
She'll take her shape and let you live
Deep in the shadows of sorrow

Today was a lovely day
But tonight, the shadows have no edge
I can't explain how it shifts so well.
How the joy can leave me so quickly.
The fear takes over.
It's always the loss of hope.
The string falls loose.
A line to hold me up turns
into ropes that hold me down
Blood turns to rolling pebbles
And air turns to dust
Sleep girl, just go to sleep
