Salvation, Me

stare at me h a r d
i need a dose of r.e.a.l.i.t.y.
for i tend to romanticize the horrid
and glorfiy the damned

color me generic
and plaster a smile upon my face
i don't want to be this
way
dont want to be deemed dysfunctional

hide me from these night terrors
who present themselves in the day
and save me from a disformed
inner reflection

i'm losing myself
quietly
you may not even care
but im putting you on notice
in the slight chance you might
want to SAVE ME

the hopeless aspects of self deception; pretensions of a blindness to the light that emanates all about every last one of us. And yet moribd curiousity alone drives us to the edges of our soul's ruin.

Is it in the aftermath of our lives that we find our self-worth, our passion for life? the yearning to love, to feel the warmth descending upon us?

"you may not even care/but im putting you on notice" Yes, I do care, and if ever you put me on notice, I'd throw the moon to save you if I must. This is wonderful. *Evangel*
