Reddens To Black
The physiological damage they can do
Make your the mind think that you’re the fool
Discolour your blue sky until it reddens to black.
Instantly cause a panic attack
The quiet stares through dead eyes
The gravity of the weight burdened by a cold, calculated smile.
Shredding the skin with razor sharp words
Drowning in ice listening to the whispering memories untold through long, long, long night verse.
Threat lingering in the air controls your breathing as your mind rips itself apart in silent despair.
The person that you one day thought you loved - the demon who controls your every move.
