Waking Up

by heather - Taurus

eyelashes crusted over
 with this mornings mascara
last nights 
 tears.
face swollen and eyes aching
 from head throbbing,
misconceptions,
 fears.

waking up to find 
 a pair of hands,
still translucent, 
 shaky.
a small constellation 
 of blood marks on my skin - a
reddened reminder: is Truth,
 (Life), faking?

(and its here  my world
has shattered).

 i'm asking nameless,
psuedo-questions to a God
 i can't understand;
      but perhaps there are no answers 
 for those who refuse to take
ignorance for an answer.

Reason for writing:

    do you ever just feel like everything you knew to be solid in your world just came crashing down?
