tangerine slashed crimson skies
golden rays blink on the horizon
silence engulfs the sooty night
arise murderous moon
chase furtive shadows
meander illusory paths
of a torn and troubled mind
to the bleeding ruins of me
standing at the precipice
perilous oblivion
turbulent waters drum
upon granite rocks
ruminations, whispering torments
fly away, fly away now
loosening tenuous grip of reality
all the stars in the sky
see me wavering
