Disillusionment swaddled around my eyes.
A protective mask to keep the innards in innocence.
Free radicals tiptoe out of my cells, creating fireworks and chaos.
Raining in my heart like sulphur.
I watch you shimmer in all colours.
My headache grey hums and heaves.
A step in your direction, allows this unmistakable feeling of regret,
to wash over me like wasted chances.
I wish I were like you.
I wish I had that jesus energy, vingered will and clarity.
Though faults falter my feet with sticky disregard.
I stumbled into something wonderous.
An electric blue, something new and smothered in deliverance.
My era of self-respect.
An abandonment to self-pity, mortarium’s of paralysed longing.
A revolution rising within, as empires of unloved fall.

Dream now in colour
Clouds collapse as I pass on through.
Padding this prison with colour.
Explosions in my eyes.
Memories shiver out like masturbation.
Leaving residue across my smile.
You were once dark like charcoal.
Crumble to kiss, choking my mind.
Infiltrating the lungs of life.
Returning now, from a trip to your heart.
Licked and loved, reborn into frantic shimmers.
Colours which dance like the sun across a ceiling.
Splintered out through the stained glass of my soul.
Where once I stumbled, I now walk.
Framing these moments that splutter dreams.
Magic and flared, fireworks of indescribable possibilities.
I dream now in colour.
I bury the past in grey.
Living out the future in shocking stains which stay.
Are you fading?
Are you fading?
Do these colours run from you.
The yellow fades to grey, inside a day.
And memories are now obscured from view.
The pill in your hand doesn’t make you invincible.
It merely hurries the inconceivable.
