THE VENOM

Sitting in a void 
Staring at vacant walls, 
Imagining its myriad colors, 
Reminiscing about the binding brilliance in life 
  
Ah, the heart! 
Such a terrible foe. 
Futile perceptions of the past... 
Mercilessly, all the vociferates are ignored. 

The venom inoculated with such lethal fangs 
I will have to bleed a river for it to find my existentialism.
