fun house
you crushed my soul
snorted it like cocaine
got high off my pain
bathed in the blood
of my afterbirth
I bore into the world
a voice of defiance
spoke my first words
against the beast
you turn & fled
under the safety
of its right wing
among its downy feathers
you'll smother
ticks & mites bite
leave festering wounds
soon come the maggots
to feast off the disease
when will you see
it's like a fun house mirror
things aren't as they appear?
you crushed my soul
snorted it like cocaine
got high off my pain
when will you see
it's like a fun house mirror
things aren't as they appear?

My Beautiful Brenda, such a powerful write delivering such a profound message...and the metaphors...perfect...we walk within the halls of what we think are fun and games...distorted by smoke and mirrors but when eyes look and view from a different angle all that is truth becomes ever so clear. It takes courage and strength for the heart to accept what has been seen masked behind glass...perhaps because at the very same moment, both become shattered.
I love you so very much my love!

When the masks drop and the reality of what's beneath sinks in, it can hurt like a bitch. Better to see the true face than the mask though and know what we're up against, I think. Feeling your pain in this one, lovely dark angel. Burn the page of betrayal and let it go. Well written and expressed

Things and people have this in common, they are almost never what they seem - first impressions in my experience are rarely correct :-)
