Unreliable

Opening the cupboard

To my psyche

Being too scared I only take a peak

For I already know what awaits

Darkness

Despair

All cloud the bits and pieces of happiness that reside there

Imagery of memories zooming by In a flash

Flashes so scary they tempt me to make a dash

Faced with the issues at hand I finally realize there’s no running away

No running from the truth

The truth Which makes nobody wanna stay
