"You are beautiful because you let yourself feel, 

and that is a brave thing indeed."

In the stillness and quiet of the night,

I slide from reality.

Tiptoeing down serpentine halls,

Only the sound of clicking heels breaking the monotony.

Weightless,

As though suspended in space,

Lost in the vast, cavernous emptiness.

Somewhere, a clock ticks by

Engulfing the last morsel of good memories,

Seeing shadows through the haze,

An amputated leg crushing one's heart.

Reality has always been a fantasy.

Step right in, love

Like the breeze, constant and comforting,

A healing balm for a troubled heart

That has walked too long down rocky shores.

And in one deep breath,

Peace at last comes to reside.
