Surrounding blue;
Sky bridges of endless light
turning black-red --
Lucifer staring
at me through Church windows weeping
crimson.

Smothered by the fall
head-first into aqua swirls and tunnels.
From heights unknown even lies are lucid.
Once so clear -
flowing into a comfortable color:
faded grey of spent storm-clouds.

Blurred;
yet feelings remain a hazy memory
echoing teasingly in my reason --
whispering me back.

Alive,
Alone.
Caged with practice;
Carved with care.
Blinded by yellow --
everything has an alien quality.
Life interrupts me; I keep coming back for more.
And people wonder why suicide seems salvation.

A fabrication we originate,
Existence: the master of deception.
Believers, we follow heedlessly.
Fragile,
Wretched,
Crushable, so undeniably stupid.

Skin feeling a live sin,
Eating me outside-in.
Someone wants to hear me scream:
the color of what I've seen.
