Red



Crimson drops on porcelain tiles
Tear stained tracks she rode on for miles
Conjuring nightmares stole her days
He left and yet the darkness stayed 

The sparks they gave did not ignite 
An inward peace which was her plight 
Pills, though many, would not oblige
To cease the moon caught in her eyes 

Negatives of what might have been 
Hued tragic Shakespearean scene 
In crawlspace she once more retreats 
Red stretcher glides... snow underneath

Half became whole, two became one 
Ripped apart, their lament lives on
Empty locked box where grid was found
Gave world her words... left without sound
