strip me of my halo

and smash my smile to smithereens

there is no point playing hero

when all you want is for me to crumble.

there is no power in what you think you have

there is no pain in the words you bring

and yet my lips still feel the stains of blood

among my endless shadowed smiles

there is too much to know

but my heart will continue to breathe

as this is my rabbit hole of truth

and my dreamscape of mysteries

which will remain full of twisted memories

may the hopes of endless watchers

be fulfilled such as our destinies

and the thoughts we bury invisibly

stay forever fighting to reach our minds

you will not know my many promises

of a world too distant to understand

and there is no way for you to remember

what kindness they let you have

as the feather floats down

it is clasped

smothered

but still glows

it is the indirect image of our wonders and desires

the curiosity that flows through our minds

don't ever forget it's sweet lullaby tune.
