River Red

River Red

A Poem by eatmills

Altered states

The mind retaliates

True stereo is dead

If the light is so pale

Then why dare you compare

Trials to tribulations

Try to find the way

The light too bright

And swims through schisms

I gave up the fight

 

Succumb

 

I didn’t believe anymore

We made it dissolute

Painted perfect images

Of ourselves

And sucked the seed of the inevitable

 

True ignorance is bliss

True ignorance of self

I just want to kiss

The reflection I see

 

I didn’t understand

I didn’t want it

If it was given to me

Take me down

 

Dead River

River red

 

I didn’t make sense

There was no sense

To make you understand

Pretend

You love yourself

Pretend

To f**k yourself

 

Go f**k yourself

 

Look at yourself

 

It was a lie

Couldn’t find

The line

 

Dead River

River red
