Crimson

Darkness washing over me

Crimson rivers as I bleed

A moment of truthOf my deep reflection

Moment of clarity

Of pure realisation

Of my past

And my guilty obsession
My breathing labours

As my mind grows dark

My heart slows

And my pulse weakens

Life seeping out of me

Finally allowing me to breathe

To remedy my affliction

Finally lucid with myself

Finally I can lay to rest

My tortured soul at last relenting

My ruptured heart no longer distorted

At last, escape
