Across the Sky

Watching the sky turn blue

And then crimson,

Leaking through the branches of old trees.

-

In a dark room

The

Light blue

Hue

Of a screen

Illuminates the actions

I wish I didn’t do.

-

Drips of sweat

Between chills

Tease my arms

With their vague warmth.

-

Breaths

Between tears

Tease my heart

With their brief freedoms.

-

Scrutinising

Mirror images

Alone

And past midnight.

Memories reflected

Proving all too real.

-

Watching the sky turn blue

And then grey

Desperately crawling

Across an empty,

Soulless sky.
