No. You don‘t understand.
You think, but you don’t.
Didn’t you stay by my side?
All through this time?
But you don’t understand.
Look at me.
What do you see?
Your sunshine?
Bringing joy and happiness in your life?
No. You don’t understand.
About my dark.
This tough mass sticking on me,
preventing each single step.
No. You don’t understand.
About my demon.
Challenging each day
a new round in the fight.
No. You don’t understand.
About my fading.
To feel liquefying.
Dissolving.
With no air to breath.
No. You don’t understand.
About my pain.
With the claws in my flesh,
tearing me apart.
No. You don’t understand.
But you should know.
Open your eyes.
I am your sunshine.
I bring joy and happiness in your life.
But don’t you understand
the slap in the ugly grimace of dark -
and the scream in the face of life:
Look at me!
All this is real!
And all this is now me!
