Bitter Sweet
How can one capture
Life's bitter sweet laughter
Wrap tightly in a box
No keys no locks.
From safe to sound
To no evil bound
For those chains don't exist
Misery left standing pissed.
This is my dream
Where I never scream.
If only it were real
But I awake a haunting chill.
Bitter sweet reality
Slams right through me.
With open arms misery waits
For my soul she takes.
