Darkness eludes my eyes
Yet the sun remains at peace
Against a sky bluer than my soul, stars gleam
While the moonlight witnesses my grief
Every day and night, recycling routines
Familiar reminders of loneliness
Constantly nag at me
As I deliberately avoid mirrors
Taking sidesteps to dodge witnessing this mess
From inside I scream
Plead for stability
Overanalyze dreams unreached
Struggle to move on and forget
My mind, fatigued by tension
Daily self-persecution
For decisions unable to amend
Separates my psyche from reality
Causes unshakable dependence
On sadness, while I contemplate
Walking towards dusk
Resting my eyes, able to dream
Of triumphantly draining the virulent blood
