Unrecognizable

The crimson darkness has fallen upon us

I have vivid memories of you

Courting you with everything I’ve got

With an ammunition of poetry

Lying next to you on the Great Lawn

Beneath the galaxy of shimmering stars

Penetrating your wetness deeply from behind

Your hands pressed up against the cold window pane

The crimson darkness has fallen upon us

We lost our child to a storm of resulting emotions

You moved so far away from me

Coital cephalgia still infiltrates daily

Voices of you scream a haunting echo

In the empty chambers of my heart

I was intoxicated with infatuation

Blinded by your secret allurement

The crimson darkness has fallen upon us

Liquid dripped from your inner thigh months too early

We were bound for complete sadness

Our eyes turned to unyielding stone

Everything failed and came to a complete halt

As we battled for each other's existence

Off the bridge you desired

You walked on and I fell deep

Turned once more

Your lips parted slightly

As if to say one last goodbye

The shadows swallowed you whole

And you were gone

As the crimson darkness has fallen upon me

I have become unrecognizable
