Dark Sunset
Fists pounding the broken glass
Tiny shards draw crimson blood
I insist on contorting my heart
Rendering a painful existence
Such a meaningful first bloom
I wish it held value in my eyes

Enduring emotional rape
My eyes speak volumes
Painted lies and hate

With your green lies
And hope the blue
Stays opaque
Heal the bruises
Black to skin
