I’m blurry face I have no cap I don’t have a problem, proper grammar or punctuation but it’s better

I’m the blurry face monster crying over the deep end of the pool, shaking in the shades of grey and raging, violent blue

I can’t see past my own blurry vision without Moon-Milk-eyes

All my voices inside are filled with stale blurry red lines

I’m afraid of the dark as well as the light

How blinding it all feels

I’m hurt but I can’t find the origin of the wound

I’m blurry face and I feel the stinging difference between now and then

Reality tells me that they are actually the same thing

All the blurry wiped away

In a digital form of eyes as large as the moon

Blinking from afar

Lashes like Rings around a planet

Bleeding into my heart like a transplant

Crying, baby, baby, baby

Don’t cry even though it hurts
