in the dark

when it seems like the world around you's breaking
and it feels like there's no one else around you
and it's quiet there's a silence in the darkness
and it sounds like the carnival is over...
-tiësto, in the dark


it's ironic really.

to be sober in a sea of dope.
to be lost in intoxication.
one of my odd, costly thrills in life, i must say.

it's worth it though.
because it's liberating.
it's like being in a fairy tale where everyone is in a trance but you.

to see what no one else seems to see.
to see light in the dark.
and no, not that type of light.
they came to forget. i came to remember.
all good things come to an end.
even good vibes.

what a way to give oneself a reality check.

i guess i'm back.
