My eyes burn with unwanted tears
I'm still crying after all these years
I look in the mirror, I see hatred and disgust
the emotions I buried are layered with dust
my skin drips red
my knuckles, white
the bruises
are dark as night
the look in my eyes
shows me I'm not alone
I'm silent inside
but the voices are known
I'm seeing stars
while I run on the street
the lights are blazing
as I'm swept off my feet
my arms become wings,
my breath disappears
I hear angels sing
and I'm free of my fears
My body lands with grace;
they stare with hungry eyes
the demons that once haunted me
watch my spirit rise.
I awake in a new reality,
and with a jolt of shock,
I see my demons swarm around me
with the motives of a hawk.
