Blinding light

My windows, covered with blankets, dark black ones to hide the intimidating light, wonder if im alive, they keep me from the day, and bring me instant night.

I’m not a vampire, although i wish to be. When i venture out into the day, which i must eventually, i shield my eyes. its hurts to look at the sun. it burns to invite its light.
Sometimes the blanket moves and a stream of light burns at my skin. Sometimes i am surprised there are no lasting marks. Some people think im faking, others think im insane, while some think its only my mind, playing a game. They might be right, but i know what i feel. The blinding light, is very real.
