Iridescence

I'm tired of chasing the light Been trapped in this crimson black night Can't find the only way out Even my own self, I always doubt. I'm addicted to the moon's iridescence. It's bloodshot halo makes a lot of sense Illuminating my mind with exasperation, Filling my heart with a void emotion. I'm tired of chasing the light Don't even know if I can still fight Everytime I try to move I cringe Hear my thoughts, please do not infringe. I'm tired of chasing the moonlight I'm tired of worshipping it-- too bright I'm tired of gazing at red and black skies I'm tired of being deceived by its lies.

The way out is easy. Make another..... More important than your pain. I don't mean another lover. Even volunteering in an animal hospital Or tutoring kids works wonders, Panagiota xxx

And i found comfort in poetry. This is my way of coping up with pain that is too much to handle, Jessica.
