I hide behind false new eyes,
Ashen for the burned out lies,
Barely concealed burning embers,
Eyes that beg you to remember,
I dare you; look in my eyes now,
My soul is safe, barred; in lock-down,
I have no fear, you cannot see,
Truths buried in the heart of me.
Drifting thoughts, just the phrase Ashen Eyes, and then of course I had to make it rhyme and I think it ruined it, or stole some of the soul from it, but that's the point isn't it. To conceal the facts with fiction.
I like my new contact lenses. They make me feel brave. My armour used to consist of studded leather cuffs and chokers, now all I need is a cover over my eyes, and I am invincible again.

Will probably scrap when I'm fully awake. Which I shouldn't be at this hour...

You're super girl. Fast talking jive walking super rad. You can bend steel and wear corset's like a mother fucker. So what if a little truth get's hidden. You put it away until you can deal with it and once you can your able to take the sucker punch it gives, it always sucker punches you. But when you're ready you can roll with the punches and hell maybe give a few back. And then you're tougher than you ever thought you could be. when you reach that state of mind that's when you know you really are made of steel.
