18/F I shut my eyes and all the world drops dead; I lift my eyes and all is born again.
Oceans do not do justice the depths my feelings reach for you. Whether in admiration, or hatred. they penetrate the deep corners of my mind and linger. Manipulating my once rose colored glasses, that have now turned green.

From Love
The truth is very cold, freezing almost. Especially once i mistook it all in an amber hue, a warm disposition. Now I see it has always been iced. dressed in a sad shine deep cracks, and clouded sensitivities. I blindly thought we were bursting in a beautiful fire dancing on the embers of longevity, burning for eternities. I thought the ashes could never catch up to us. But we were never on fire. Only I, in a hypothermic solitude dreaming of a faraway, beautiful warmth twisted passion: as a means of an escape.

but these are blooming thoughts, so treat them as so— admire their beauty as they continue to grow slowly but surely, we will come to know if our love is a white or red colored rose.

Blooming
I know you know. That you can’t say what you have to. And i can feel the thunder, the magma, the gas boiling inside the whites of your eyes. I feel the lack of a feeling i felt when we were once dancing on water. But now we sink. Deep, Deep, Deep. Until we hit the bottom.

Sinking
Soft like glass. I am doe-eyed, stuck between the future and the past. Smooth, transparent, yet fragile let me fall and i promise to shatter all over me all over you. Until we are both red-stained, blotchy tear-soaked, and nauseous. Soft like glass. I am running between the future and the past.

Soft Like Glass
Shift. And your eyes meet mine, brown meets brown mixes double the intensity We are sweet, innocent we melt in the heat. Chocolate. Shift. My tongue against yours a minty fresh communion You are enticing, inviting you love me freely Peace. Shift. Our voices seem to overlap more often than not And it’s freezing I’m shivering, i’m alone Ice.

Shift
Bug bitten and red I wrestle with time and plead with the dead Give me the answers for the voices in my head Blue and green bruise i’m shaking with anxiety before hearing the news Lead me to a place of peace where I can feel free Scarred, burned, and ****** give my shadowed thoughts a run for their money.

Simmering down to an unnoticed lull. A null state of being, a dormant volcano. Though the magma boils deep, deep, deep inside— on the surface it is cold. icy. ignored. The fire, it burns solo. Once sharing the electric eruption with the charming atmosphere— letting go, feeling, for once. Now, lays low. Boiling hot— burning the inside. internally combusting. suicide.

Volcanic
I am surrounded by red, beating walls that cast violent shadows on my skin and threaten bruises with each beat. Inside, it is deafening. I cannot hear myself breathe though, these gory walls shrink my lungs and throw me into a dark red sleep.

A Violent Environment
The T shirt is grand. A medium muted blue, with delicate speckles of gray— and white accents. Its dark red stains dress under my arm to the side of my breast. White paint smeared on the bottom right unevenly. It fits over my legs when i don’t want to exist. It’s the costume for the time being fit for a queen like me
