Vivid

A delicate madness ensues
Inside of a silent slumber
Beginning with violent never-ending roads
That are plagued with purple moods
The mischievous colors draw me in-Temping
Naming and pulling, stripping away all dignity
My flesh is weak and sucked completely away
My heart and lungs pound heavily
It gives me here what's not possible there
I Lust-for the invitation is just to much to bare
And just as my fingers are with in an inch of having what I desire
My eyes open-The light darkens quickly with in me
A delicate madness ensues
