i survive.

still standing
somehow
risen
from a storm
of both ice and fire
i couldn't explain it
if i tried
still
i am alive
living in the shadow
of all that's been
of the solid brick wall
built to keep me
out
no sunlight
no sunlight for me
keeping me pale
keeping me sick
i can run for days
in shadows
no sunlight
i imagine
it's my own imagination
designing the levels
of my nightmares
cold and damp
always dark
but for some reason
i scale the walls
i keep running
hope
i smile for you
for this is not your fault
i would never bring you in
further than this
you deserve a smile
until you don't
i avoid mirrors
so i don't have to see
no sunlight
this is how
i survive
...
