Illusion

I stood out in the rain
pieces of me dripped out of my eyes
as it stained

My skin with burning pain
never stopped
an out of control train
that crashes up in flames 

Smoke and fire spreading as I am standing
in the middle of this endless plain

Still watching as my good continues to battle
my evil with never ending rain

Hallucinating I'm starting to think a frown 
or a smile are one in the same...

Sometimes when we are caught in the middle of an emotional storm it is difficult to know the difference between a frown and a smile because, neither really matter that much at the time. Nicely expressed Sofia.
