Sometimes, you murmur that we just need to survive.

Instead, I’m screaming that we need to thrive.

::illusion::

This apparition finds my thoughts so quickly.

And there are so many masks in front of me.

::imp::

 

A smile.

A smirk.

A grin.

A lovely imp.

::where?::

When all else fails, I’ll search for it.

But where?

::reality::

 

I laugh.

I cry.

I feel.

I am not a shadow.

You can shatter my dreams.

But please don’t break my hopes.

::windows::

The windows of your soul crystallize, and now I’m left trapped outside.
