My eyes refuse to open
The light is too heavy for me to carry
The darkness is what helps me breathe
For my stress is a fog
Which is poison to my lungs

Goodbye, my love
I'll see you in my dreams
Created by a red haze
and a self inflected end

My eyes see the bliss within the darkness
For my eyes have seen such beauty in darkness
Stars shine so innocently
The pale moon a protective eye
but
My eyes only see the hate within the light
Because it is far harder to tell which smile is really bright
in a world lit by fakes

I've never understood the concept of being unique
'One of a kind'
'Irreplaceable'
'Nothing can take your place'
Doesn't it all sound lonely?
Every 'unique' person leaves a 'unique' void
It's like trying to finish a puzzle with the wrong pieces
In the end the piece ends up misshapen
From years of trying to fit in someones unique place
A place where they just don't belong

Open eyes
Closed heart
