 As I Dream 

2018

Mixed media on Duratrans Lightbox

As I dream, of angles falling with clipped wings, I remember songs of a disciple, that sing of love hope and compassion, but blinded, he will bring forward, war hate and violence, with peace in a sword

as I dream, of drips of poison from my wrist, air is broken glass in my lungs, silver that flows smoothly, the scaring, run for a seconds rest, escape the black and white, bleed to slow the cycle

As I dream, I drown deeper into what is real, once masked seen in shattered mirror, in skin the demons truth reveals, cant steal, a dream drifting further, as you struggle to fight, the bonds chain tightens

As I dream, darkness that swallows shows a truth, that illuminates lies seen on masks, worn to see invisible trust, cant see, the nothing I reach for, fall to the ground black, the sandman will gently touch

As I bleed, wounds left by hands that feed, soft voice rings through blood, opened by silver stained red, spit blood, words razors cut inside, leaving scars hidden, so you will never see

True me, face hidden under skin screaming my mind, watch clock ticking prolonging my time, where I fade from everyone fly again, but fall, guilt keeps me alive, so I forget throw away, love you, and survive, what I see
