The Orange Rages
My heart is like a piece of stained glass
too murky to quite see through, yet
so easy to shatter
sending colourful shades all over the
floor
Bleed, bleed
through my tears
through my fears
Slow and still
I love to watch him
stand
solid
just as my heart beats as I stare through these
tinted glasses
Your eyes have burned through my
soul
and the embers are all that remains
Painfully they whisper in my ear
“It’s a knowingness” they say
little angels
-from hell
An invisible breath
breathes life into these worn embers
bright
the orange rages on
