Serenity

[Burning Innocence]

As I lay in wonder,
darkness falls upon me slowly
The decaying moon rises as the the sun dies down into it's watery grave.
Shades of pink and purple fade as the black sky flies over with her glittering cape
I'm expecting sharp pain to rush throughout my body...
Working from inside,
scratching out
Expecting my neverending madness to continue on
My mind no longer twisting and turning
No longer a ticking time bomb waiting to explode...
So peaceful
I should feel sick to my stomach,
but there aren't any knots to untie
Only fluttering butterflies,
softly tickling my insides
I look into the mirror,
I can barely make out the reflection
But there's more than what meets the eye
I swear I'm smiling
So content...complete
