Black


A glimmer of hope in the blink of an eye. Eternally perplexing, bane, on an empty mind. Lonely, red is shifting - hordes of emptiness follow me racking up the will to live bystanders wiz past, but not in motion streaming lights in acid vision warping space around me waltzing through the dark fairground of life A glimmer of hope in the blink of an eye Flashbacks are always rotten Pushing forward, and the past forgotten Sunbathing in the moonlight rays I dance in the Tomb of Nebamun and fly through the valley of kings Out of the dark, we come to the light, and from the light, we shall return to the dark

Thoughts of mine... Tend to be dark. Its an outlet, kind of a alter ego - im not evil or sinister; or depressing, despite my writings and photo appearing as such... I'm quite nice really... Suffer with quite sever social anxiety tho, struggle with addiction and PTSD ... I've had a peculiar life
