I fall deeper and deeper
deeper and deeper
into the darkness.
My heart bleeds
my lip trembles.
It took years,
decades even
for me to see that now...
The sky is blue.
The river flows.
The birds sing.
The light captivates me.
I never knew
there's so much
to learn, to see, to understand.
I travel with a violet rose
yes...violet
what a pretty color.
I can't turn back
nor would I desire to.
Once revealed
always exposed.
I am intrigued.
