The sun peeps
Through our curtains
We are lost in our imagination
Everything is true
But false
All we know is pain
The sweet release of burning
When night comes
Tears fall down our cheeks
We look for the light of the moon
But it eludes us
We lick the salt
Off of our lips
Try to read
Take a breath
We would love to escape
This torture room
Find a place in the city
A place where
Nobody knows us
We dream of stars
And sweet clean breaths
Life is nothing
But a fairy tale
I hope it has a happier ending
She whispers
And I hold her hand.
