Addressing My Demons
Posted: Mon Aug 06, 2007 9:37 am
Your dark shadow suffocates my living
Gasping for the "oxygen of happiness"
A long drag of air, followed by a pause
Evaporates into dust, still choking
A relentless force, no sign of an end
The lights are on but no one's answering
I know how they operate, they just won't leave
But it takes 2 to tango, and nothing's changed
So now we're above the clouds, am I right?
For now, but descent is inevitable
Does it have to be? Any alternative?
Only you know the answer.
You are me.
So prove it.
