More Morbid Than Merry* ~
Presently~
Stumbling after my Muse,
Lighting torch and patient fuses...
Refusing to accept this Dark...
(Shadow*Painted Pitch.)
I want to begin again!
I want to play the Violin!
I want to vibrate in Music's exhale...
Prevail through this Inner Battle...
Meanwhile~
Suffocating in my Cocoon,
Caring more than I can carry...
Carving airholes into canvas,
Feeling more Morbid than Merry...
(More Fairy*Tale than True...)
