Blood
Sweat
Tears
This liquid is black
A darkness from within
Lights shine all around
Bright, beautiful
They stop
Stare
Dim
These endless shadows
Locked away
Hidden
A false light flickers on
A feeble firefly
Dim
Noticeably so
The shadows peek through
Scream, plead, push them away
They return to their prison
Bright lights notice
They approach
Cautious, but tender
Warm and wonderful
Frightening
Are you okay?
You freeze
The shadows whisper among themselves
Ignore them
Smile
You're fine
Just tired
The lights accept this
They walk away, satisfied
Your light fades to nothing
Alone again
The shadows are set free
They moan, weeping in pain
You cry with them
But you're fine, right?
Yes.
