The Corridor


This was doomed from the start.

The sequence itself tainted and belittled,

my heart in essence laid bare.

The cuts, the scars

they felt deep and strange

like reminiscences of ancient wounds

that have been late to heal.

Once again comes the flood,

yet again over myself.

I cannot conquer me,

so how am I to see?

Down into it again

flashes of red,

shadows in black,

time stands still in this impish night.

The dream that was

the night that is

the thought that counts

within this breach.

A breach of lust,

in the midst of rain.

A rain of tears

in sudden flame.

This was doomed from the start... and you alone will know what this eve holds.
