Reality
January 1, 2020
Fear is a map
Follow the signs
How it invokes itself
Ages away
Secret uncovered
As you find it in yourself
Jealousy is a drug
As lilies to a cat
A tourniquet to suppression
Your cocaine
Your patch
For in it your destruction
Happiness is a dandelion
Soil parts its mouth for life
Until it knows its truth, Rather
The weed
Its fluff takes flight
In hopes to catch another
