Rubix Cube

i wake up in the morning 

wash not one face, but six 

pigments on each side, crawling

to be seen, but never mix

again i change, 

but always the same 

unable to show all my range 

the rainbow is to blame 

why can’t i choose one way to be 

maybe people would stay 

belonging is alien to me

but i don’t let myself astray 

the colours have made their mark 

forever in my life 

slowly losing my light and spark 

darkness seaping like wounds from a knife 

seen, but never solved
