Concealing Silver Linings

Concealing Silver Linings


Peaceful Painter:

With paintbrush in hand she leaned forward to paint the moon black
Exposing cold shoulders to an outcome abstract 

To her dismay the light around the edges could not be concealed
For a light in the darkness cannot NOT be revealed 

Darkness is as consuming as a hand that is sleight
Yet we can go blind by staring into the light


Chaos Ensues:

Running from the chaos that was happening in town
She kept tripping on the lies that were laying around
Landing on hypocrisies blanketing the ground
Surrounded by demons holding her down 

Weather perpetually pushed or reluctantly hurled
She ran right off the edge of the world
