Euphoria

red light, green light, blue light,

danced across her eyes

like a symphony of lies

yellow light, purple light, pink light,

filled the sky

like a rainbow

when the rain dances across the sunlight

blood roaring,

breath shallowing

eyes gleaming

she leapt edge to edge

sometimes,

she was lying

on needles and pinpricks

most times,

she was running,

creating an untold path

no one following behind

always was she lost

run and hide as she may

trapped in a maze

filled with monsters and haze

her head spun

the scene changed

“It’s alright my dear, I am right here.” She heard

she scrambled, feeling helpless

was there ever a choice?

flinging her head left and right

after hearing that voice

she was handed a loaded gun

but willingly, she shot herself

she tried it once

it was fun

she tried it again

she forgot the world

she soon understood why she was running

racing after him

chasing her obsession

he had, after all,

promised her healing

her owner and her vice

her lover and her noose

it was a shame,

she fell for him not once

but twice

alas, it was too late

she had taken too much

she was gone too soon

left there with a loaded gun,

and open veins
