The Red

Your facade was captivating

a beauty so unimaginable 

that i was instantly trapped 

I was instantly drawn 

to the mysterious ocean of your soul

i dived in 

and felt nothing but warmth 

and comfort 

within the crystal blue 

 that lied within you

i never wanted to leave

greed overcame me 

and i wanted more 

so i dived deeper

and deeper

and deeper

until the beautiful blue i once loved 

became a thick dark red

the moment i entered 

i couldnt breathe

the warmth froze 

and punctured me 

like a thousand knives

i screamed to no avail 

i tried to swim to the surface 

to escape from you

but the ice became chains 

they wrapped around me 

and squeezed till i wasnt breathing

i started to fall

deeper into The Red

and as i fell deeper 

the farther i was from freedom

the more i started to die
