Rictus

Music: "Return 2" - Max Richter

Fear -

that something called out in front of you

the day before the day

you called yourself desperate

in trying

to find

the voice

for all the silent screams

you gave away in front of mirrors

since you never cry alone

and you will always be there

for yourself

the perfect reflection

of a rictus

one only you have seen on stage

the perfect absence

of tragedy

one only you have laughed at

while wiping tears

sketched onto the veins of your eyes

bloodshot

tired

of lies shadowing each other

in the vastness of your mind

all walled up in spaces

alleged

believed

you just return to

the day before the day

when that something called out in front of you

was fear

of fear...
