You can't drag me
from hell to paradise
there is no
blue sky
behind those dirty eyes
you may thrill me
for a moment
but I know it's only
my own desperation
calling in the dark of night
Dress up memories
how you like to
make them shimmer
make them shine
they're not worthy
of temptation
you can never
steal my mind

Well wrought, punchy piece; the delicacy of the language perfectly belies the darkness beneath. This is probably one of my favourites by you.

Thanks Jack - but I may be at my very best when I'm angry and choking on the Christmas cake at the same time!

Good question, Kandice. When mind and heart are balanced there's no resistance necessary as reaction becomes automatic. I try to avoid fighting with myself as usually I find my soul will know best in any case.
