words I have for you:
Dancing with revenge while slowly being extracted & drained from. Continuing to do something that I get the thrill of revenge from and I think the joke is only on who I’m getting revenge on. The joke is also on me. In my unawareness and ego, I’m slowly being drained and extracted from. There’s a man with an extraction tube on the eyelash on the top right. An upside down smiling face laughing at the irony. A being under black hood moving the green energy and mixing it in with black next to a watching eye. Guards of spikes and mountains protect my eye and also poisons it. Causing the way into my heart to become more and more complex. I can feel the numbness becoming more appealing than trying to get through this convoluted path. Mirror pieces intended to bring you into the point of view of the feeler.

🎼the song painted though my synesthesia connection here is House of Balloons/Glass Table Girls by The Weeknd.
❕I have no current affiliation with The Weeknd or any related entities
