[inthelightofmyshadow]

melodrama and realism

i dream i fall into a demon's heart it is white round with two wings facing opposing directions it sees me with the eye in its centre i fall from the sky into its red artery i slip down into the core i am not afraid when it happens i let it happen twice there is less thrill than i expect in the morning i tell my mother she says maybe you are looking into the hearts of people and you see that there is only evil i do not have the strength to tell her i am falling back into old patterns i am picking up my bad habits again
