Darkened

razors dance across aching skin
a memory within a dream
metallic light shimmers
in a darkened space

crimson stains upon satin sheets
life pools within my hand
black pain flows
from a darkened place

dreams blur into the reality of a moment
mischievous shadows taunt
illumination of a hallucination
upon a darkened heart

closed eyes see with sullen urgency
how quickly a moment can spin out of control
a broken hearted promise
remains intact
