I joke about you
Pretend that we are friends
Yet you are locked away most days
Today pounding on the glass
Wanting to escape
How such a black shadowy figure
Can make so much noise
Somehow you scream louder than me
Wanting out
Having me joke about drinking things
Oh the ideations that creep in
There was a crack
How did I let you in
The unknown of the source
The glass rattles
As bang harder
Screaming to be let free
Those who look close enough
May just see
For the eyes are a window
The window is where you are at
Making yourself known
No longer behind the curtain
Standing there
Getting my attention
You hear those words
I am fine
Escape these lips
As you had hoped
For you know
I say it enough
The games will start
A game to you
Is a war for me
A power struggle
Of who will win
The defeat won’t happen
Til I am bloody and bruised
A fight I constantly push against
A game you love to play
Being bloody and bruised
Is how you like me
You’ll whisper in my ear
The things I love to hear
Being to weak
I’ll listen
Only too closely
Your darkness
Will slowly consume me
Like the smokey demon you are
Breathless
Your raspy voice will share your thoughts
Begin to poke and prod
No energy to force you back
The window is open for all to see
Trapped that you are
How much longer will you be trapped
For the answer is unknown
I have fight in me
Before your game starts
We both know how this goes
Only one always survives
