Solferino
My refuge--
The world is a blur of
Colorless colors,
A kaleidoscope of what never was.
Gray has even ceased to exist.
My refuge--
I never want to be left alone,
But that's the only way I can survive.
People aren't always human,
And they destroy whatever they touch.
My refuge--
Things are never easy,
The things should be perfect now.
Whatever I try
I can't ever do.
My refuge--
A peaceful darkness surrounds.
I would rather be here than
In the kaleidoscope.
The world makes me dizzy.
My refuge--
I'm stuck in the cold again.
Crying,
Nothing is there to reach out to.
Hand holds are too slippery.
My refuge--
I am just a problem.
A horrible human,
An ugly being.
I don't mean to make them fight.
My refuge--
It's all my fault.
I can't do things right,
I will never be good.
Silence now arrests.
My refuge--
Protect me like you always do,
Calm the storm and
Give me strength
To face the world again.
Thank you--
My refuge.
Solferino: a purplish red dye from Solferino, Italy.
