White Lies and Deep Blues

Just a spoonful swiftly medicates all the pain away  
After the laughter no longer echoes of nature's way  

Art is a temporary fix concealing ever deepening scars  
Painted in the space between the black night and white stars  

Soothing to the eye while blinding an old burnt-out mind  
Born in the void hearts leave between beats time cannot unwind  

Read between the lines where the folds in space are easily unfurled  
So tired of deplorable lies disguising a white, colorless world  

Pouring from the sides of eyes glowing in purified hues  
Drowning in the depths of life's deep ocean of blues  

The verse of the Earth cries out in a guttural moan  
Listening to the Moon that howls silently of being alone  

In a sky full of wishes sung by the voices of solitary souls  
Burying themselves in the sorrow of bottomless holes  

Where shadows cast light on the truth that has always been known  
That even in darkness a heart radiates love all on it's own  

Exist in the warmth your own heart bleeds deep under your skin  
Where the fine line between darkness and light is infinitely thin
