crimson red

It’s accusations of treason
That go through my head.
A veil shrouds my reason
Crimson red.

Did you know that you drew blood
With the things you said?
Your heel crushed a rosebud
Crimson red.

All the feelings that I nurtured
Left me empty and dead;
My heart thrown out to the vultures
Crimson red.

fiery orange

In the vastness of the desert of dreams
Remnants of hope are starting to cringe
At the bottom of hearts; for all seems
Fiery orange.

The sun burns the very soul dry.
Oblivious to pain it can infringe,
A hot glowing gem set in the sky
Fiery orange.

The desert sand is melted to tiles
Beneath tired soles, starting to singe;
Stretching around for thousands of miles:
Fiery orange.

dirty yellow

Each step is more revealing
Of confinement. Paths narrow.
Can't shake a dungeon feeling
Dirty yellow.

Slightly more than I can handle -
All around an eerie glow;
Shadows flicker in light of candles
Dirty yellow.

Down here no one hears your calls.
The only thing alive is the echo
Bouncing off cursed dank walls
Dirty yellow.

poison green

A seed sown ages ago
Has sprung weeds unforseen
And they continue to grow
Poison green.

Magic vines grow entwined,
Grow entangled, yet unseen,
Driving thorns into my mind
Poison green.

I need to grow another culture
To extract some morphine
To counter this torture
Poison green.

deepest blue

You look up to a single open eye
Bestowing blessings down on you:
The watchful goddess in the sky
Deepest blue.

Starry night, the moon in bloom,
The sky takes on its deepest hue
And silence falls over the room
Deepest blue.

A stillness sets in on the mind;
Sleep begins to claim its due;
A dream's thread starts to unwind
Deepest blue.

toxic violet

I am caught in senseless craze,
The strangest thing I ever met;
Getting lost inside a haze
Toxic violet.

This doesn't feel like me at all.
Need to cross the lines you've set:
Lies spun to keep me in thrall
Toxic violet.

I feel the surge of adrenaline,
Roll the dice, I've placed my bet.
A whirl has caught me in its spin
Toxic violet.

arctic white

Far north where the Ice Queen reigns
And the northern lights grace the night
The stars are embedded in icy planes
Arctic white.

Your screams freeze; cold muffles the sound.
You might as well be sealed airtight,
Frozen in mid-action, bound to the ground
Arctic white.

Ice crystals sharp as thousands of sickles
Pierce your heart with frozen starlight.
The thoughts in your head turn into icicles
Arctic white.

misty grey

A plunge into conscience
Has lead me utterly astray
On another plane of existence
Misty grey.

I dance too close to the edge.
Fog swirls rise all along the way
Shrouding all knowledge
Misty grey.

Clinging to it with my stiff fingers
I still feel sanity slipping away.
Only shadows hover and linger
Misty grey.

shiny black

So many promises meant to smite
I have long since lost track;
Chasing their ghosts into the night
Shiny black.

Reasons I could find a million
But not the will to turn back…
Running away on a winged stallion
Shiny black.

The heart has ways the mind denies
And slowly reason starts to crack.
See the abyss mirrored in my eyes
Shiny black.
