red is the dawn
I forget all that’s gone
is it a color that I see
or just a word that we’ve agreed on?
is it the ways of the shadows
that dig through your soul?
is it the aftermath of your youth?
or only bending the truth?
considering death
and the size of the universe
all I can contribute is:
my life is too short for this
exposed to sound waves
I had long forgotten to love
is it trust in your own death?
is your brain just a mess?
is it the change of the weather?
no that can’t be the cause
does it feel like a release
that you won’t live forever
