|
you can be Kesha
|
||
|
and I'll be Alice.
|
||
|
Alice,
|
||
|
Alice,
|
||
|
Arisu,
|
||
|
*I never meant to hurt you, Arisu.*
|
||
|
*I love you, Arisu.*
|
||
|
|
||
|
I hurt,
|
||
|
and I hurt back,
|
||
|
and I disappear,
|
||
|
and I forget
|
||
|
|
||
|
the light and the dark
|
||
|
a construct as old as time itself
|
||
|
the duality that lies at the heart of mankind
|
||
|
the god and the devil
|
||
|
the sun and the moon
|
||
|
the blue and the gold
|
||
|
the new and the old
|
||
|
the ancient father
|
||
|
of every daughter I've known
|
||
|
|
||
|
but I don't know if I'll make it through this night.
|
||
|
|
||
|
is it because I'm trapped in an institution that does naught but suck money from me?
|
||
|
is it because, no matter where I go on this Wired, I keep making an asshat of myself?
|
||
|
how many licks does it take to get to the center of a trademarked corporate candy?
|
||
|
|
||
|
a-one, a-two, a-three!
|
||
|
|
||
|
the world may never know,
|
||
|
*and I sure as hell don't!*
|
||
|
|
||
|
with aching knees and a heavy heart,
|
||
|
I push myself off the floor
|
||
|
and decide that I will keep fighting.
|
||
|
for what, I know not
|
||
|
for who, I remember not
|
||
|
but even though my feet yearn for rest
|
||
|
my heart must keep thumping
|
||
|
|
||
|
it is 4:04 in the morning
|
||
|
and a phone's brightness is blaring into the night
|
||
|
abandoned by its owner
|
||
|
and I have had gods at my feet
|
||
|
and angels in my arms, in my hair, touching everywhere
|
||
|
even if I cannot remember what they've said
|
||
|
|
||
|
Seliph the Indomitable,
|
||
|
Seliph the E'er-Complete,
|
||
|
it shines above and crawls below
|
||
|
and guides along my feet
|
||
|
|
