Neon World

by dawning-welliver

This neon world, so lit with colored glow My midnight wanderings, they reek of you— So hidden in the air, nowhere to go, This nebula, it lies, and clouds my view. You’ve stripped me of my solitude so long I can’t imagine days without you there It’s taken my whole life to see, you’re wrong— My strength depends not on this sick affair. I can’t be angry, no, for it’s my fault— I let you shine your beam upon my fears, Escort me in a red white blue assault Red light, green—I hate what once I revered. I cry, I scream, there’s no way to unbind Illuminate my soul— Please! I am blind.
