Uncolorful Design

Ride amid dark waves
Surpassing the points of sanity
Climbing these perpendicular hills
Into the glare of the moon,
Vanishing in the vast
Beyond the air that chokes on empty
Releasing with it a ray of energy
That tries to win its optimism back

Many lie them, there, into the earth
A place from where darkness gave birth
And encloses thy with the black muck
Until light cannot be seen for many a width

Into uncolored vasts we fly
Forever from here we are chained to the sky
If ever I could sew a piece of me onto you
You'd forsake the memory
Of this shade that poured itself through you

Blood drips from a blood red eye
As from her insides
The pain drips from her frailty
Into a well where thousands of screams
Dwell in an everlasting void
Where no release is met
And where designs are what they are
When you have sought yourself
Beneath the world.
