Blue

mirror cracked
jagged slivers, heart rending
and fierce
asulle moodiness
engulfed by music
from a distant land
a distant time
cd spinning and slicing
cutting and dicing
releasing
rebelling against the dark
against the black eve
of the heart
pulse racing
rush
then stop
cold
redemption is near
the pain
reasoning leaves me
with no reason
to cry
my burden is born
the agony of it's birth
is my salvation
hidden in it's
physical fire
leaves of roho and mint
frozen
still in the morning
as blue as this
