Scarlet Rain

i felt your scarlet rain
bursts of color in my midnight life
the explosions of your voice
like fireworks in the sky
a futile chase, your trail of lies
lost in the cornfields
of unethical hope

The Performer

There she stands, in the spotlight, Blood drips from her dazzling grin. Her youth, stripped away so swiftly, To fulfill her cravings for him. There she stands, heaving breaths, Eyes searching his face for a sign— Everything, anything, nothing at all; Solely the shadows of his lies. There she stands: the performer, Desperately reaching for his grace A fated mirage—he promised her once That she was the one who held his gaze. When the lights have dimmed And the party fades, He will leave the marble floor empty. His adorations spared for another— One brighter, better, younger. He wouldn’t dare watch her leave.

A love only written in fiction, Imperfectly smitten with him. Green eyes like emerald stones— A richness especially ma...
