an ode to demons,
to sadness, to vultures
and to madness.

☾︎ you were just a frame
hanging at the back of my life,
tying my hand to the time left behind,
the kind of picture i only
detailed once in a while,
a renaissance i escaped as a child.

questions, questions,
forgone minds,
my friends told me
it'll be alright if i smile.

☾︎ you were that side of a
building that never saw the sun,
shadows running were your
only smoking gun,
that part of the sky that
never felt free,
you were a fight i wish
i had never intervened.

a little child
that is just so naive,
reckless insecurities
drowning in their eyes,
a child shouldn't be
wondering
how to grow up right;

☾︎ you were just a frame
hanging over my head,
unspoken yet so many words said,
but so long as time can heal open wounds, these gray clouds will
hide behind a silver moon,

as long as i can keep going for a few more moments,
the shades of dawn will
colour my life before i know it.
