Tonight

Its one of those nights. When the weight you've been ignoring pokes out its ugly head and decides it no longer needs to remain quietly shifting your shoulders. Distracting you from happier thoughts and shoving its gnarly visage into your sights, always present always there.
A night when music has no meaning but to remind you of old scars that riddle your mind and heart but lay graciously hidden...but not tonight.
Tonight you see them, feel them. You envy them for they have healed and left behind a mark and yet you still cannot.
Just another night when acting normal takes its toll but its the only thing you've got... The only other choice being lying awake in darkness for you dare not sleep. Sleep would not bring dreams only the horrors in your mind would appear before you now.
So instead, on this night you sit before the bright screen and type away lies and facades, then finally give up the ghost. Removing the mask by posting one fatal post. One you would regret so soon but never deny its existence.
And that night, tonight...
Its just one of those nights for me.
