All in One Breath

Living Gore, Dreaming Glory

At times,

better lied than told.

Swallowed up by words,

and emptied out by glory or gore;

Your choice,

It doesn't matter to me.

Living a hollow life,

with fake friends

and only few true loves.

No better can be found in a world like this.

Watching the colors on your face change,

while dreaming of better life,

but knowing you won't reach glory

until your gore ends;

With quiet tears

and the utter most uncanny

but strangely calm feeling.

Thinking about the blurred happiness

during the day,

while dreaming the vivid horrid at night.

When you say,

you want your dreams to come true,

keep in mind

nightmares are dreams too.

There's a lot of negativity

in the world-

so much I'm surprise

I'm somewhat sane.

The weird seeming normal

and praised.

While the normal

seeming weird and shamed.
