<p>you can be Kesha<br />
and I'll be Alice.<br />
Alice,<br />
Alice,<br />
Arisu,<br />
<i>I never meant to hurt you, Arisu.</i><br />
<i>I love you, Arisu.</i></p>
<p>I hurt,<br />
and I hurt back,<br />
and I disappear,<br />
and I forget</p>
<p>the light and the dark<br />
a construct as old as time itself<br />
the duality that lies at the heart of mankind<br />
the god and the devil<br />
the sun and the moon<br />
the blue and the gold<br />
the new and the old<br />
the ancient father<br />
of every daughter I've known</p>
<p>but I don't know if I'll make it through this night.</p>
<p>is it because I'm trapped in an institution that does naught but suck money from me?<br />
is it because, no matter where I go on this Wired, I keep making an asshat of myself?<br />
how many licks does it take to get to the center of a trademarked corporate candy?</p>
<p>a-one, a-two, a-three!</p>
<p>the world may never know,<br />
<i>and I sure as hell don't!</i></p>
<p>with aching knees and a heavy heart,<br />
I push myself off the floor<br />
and decide that I will keep fighting.<br />
for what, I know not<br />
for who, I remember not<br />
but even though my feet yearn for rest<br />
my heart must keep thumping</p>
<p>it is 4:04 in the morning<br />
and a phone's brightness is blaring into the night<br />
abandoned by its owner<br />
and I have had gods at my feet<br />
and angels in my arms, in my hair, touching everywhere<br />
even if I cannot remember what they've said</p>
<p>Seliph the Indomitable,<br />
Seliph the E'er-Complete,<br />
it shines above and crawls below<br />
and guides along my feet</p>
