1Shadows flutter across your fiery eyes
Painting a portrait of pain
Light catches on your sparkling cheeks
Dampened from your tears
Silence crawls through the dusk
Across the horizon
Seeking
Loneliness lingers in the darkness
Prepared to strike
The world plots against you
At every move
With every breath
The pain won't stop
The tears will fall
The love will end
No matter how deep
Friends will leave
Betray
Lie
Unpredictable it seems
This place we reside
Between all of these things
Is there really room for happiness?
And if there is
You have to ask yourself
Was it really worth it?
Did it feel as good as you thought it would?
Are you as happy as you wished you would be?
Is your life how its meant to turn out?
What's the point in avoiding the inevitable?
Why take life easy when difficult is more fun
When evil is more amusing
When everything is exactly what you thought it would never turn out to be
Why try to correct things that aren't meant to be
When maybe wrong…is more right than we thought all along
What do you do when the principles of wrong and right are flipped?
And mixed together
What if there were no consequences?
Everything was up to you
Self decision
Contemplation
Would you be happy?
To get what you want…
Would that make all these feelings worthwhile?
Is it worth believing in something that will never come true?
No matter how hard you pray or wish
You will never get
And you know it
But you will always secretly want it
Hope
Is that what makes this all worthwhile?
The hope for what's right
The hope for good friends
The hope to have fun
The hope to stay safe…
But then again is it hope that holds us together?
Or faith in our hope
Faith
In something
Whether God
Or friends
Or yourself
Faith in anything at all
Is that what makes everything shine in the aspect it does?
We'll never know
