Pleading Ignorance
Empty Blackness surrounds me,
It forces me to think.
This nothingness
Shoves my pain and dreams at me.
It makes me look them in the eye.
My fears crammed down my throat,
Making me choke.
What can I do?
Confronted by the truth,
Living a lie.
Looking at another me
Tortured by what is inside.
Ignorance I search for
Grasping handflls of midnight,
For I wish I didn't know
Just who has control.
