"There are some things you don't come back from.
You either live with them, or you don't"
- Martinez from The Walking Dead
~ Full Moon, Madness and a Solitary Whisper ~
Ebony skies
darkness cries
a misplaced moon
madness consumes
is this real? am I here?
wake, wake up
swimming in lies
stars in disguise
a full moon mirage
felled by sabotage
keep walking? or disappear?
wake, wake up
consciousness revised
by the onslaught of spies
called upon by the mind
to rob the heart blind
am I insane? is nothing sincere?
wake, wake up
stillness becomes my demise
uncertain how to rise
every direction
is a question
can a windless night carry a whisper?
wake, wake up
