The Lights
fatal mind fetal
pose dying to
find my home
afraid to feel
to hear to see
it hurts to face
it hurts to erase
the pain kills me
eats me inside
it hurts to hide
tired of fighting
& of being alive
afraid of the dark
the demons inside
the night & light it
hurts to wake up
i curl my back to
loneliness hide
inside their riffs
and cries try to
forget who i was
Archive hears me
where no one does
pose dying to
find my home
afraid to feel
to hear to see
it hurts to face
it hurts to erase
the pain kills me
eats me inside
it hurts to hide
tired of fighting
& of being alive
afraid of the dark
the demons inside
the night & light it
hurts to wake up
i curl my back to
loneliness hide
inside their riffs
and cries try to
forget who i was
Archive hears me
where no one does

This is a heavy piece Duende. Hits hard. This piece lures me in. Tight, suffocating, well expressed & well written.

Yes, I know it's a heavy piece, the song asked for it. Fortunately it's (mainly) feelings from the past though it comes and goes, is there at times. Thanks heaps for your comment, Keith 🙏🏻

Powerfully penned, Duende. Into the list it belongs. "This write hits hard, like a right hook connecting with a glass jaw." Felt this one, my friend. Incredible read. Appreciate you.
