The Orange

In the depths again
Where black has supremacy
And all your friends speak in stillness
Frozen by ugly indecisions

Heavy is the throat
Torn by words that are thrown
When pain enters through every vein
The ends you chewed on  

Hunger and not eating
The wars to come in your mind
When hell overwhelms any sanctuary

Depression resurrects
And hope falls to the adulation
When hate mimics everything you say

Don’t you forfeit too soon
This prism of wither is transient
Cut your losses and set sail anywhere

Warmth is so fleeting
You set fire to all you cherish
These walls reinforce the emptiness
A loss that can’t be filled

So you toss and turn
With the mutilations to follow
Only reflect the neglect you swallow
Regret mounting over years

Hunger and not eating
The wars to come in your mind
When hell overwhelms any sanctuary

Depression resurrects
And hope falls to the adulation
When hate mimics everything you say

Don’t you forfeit too soon
This prism of wither is transient
Cut your losses and set sail anywhere

In your time of need
Reach out for anyone close
Turn from the dark that consumes
Don’t revel in it’s abuse

It’s only one day
It’s only temporary lashes
It’s the truth shown in it’s deceit
Learn to forgive yourself

Get up, you paid enough
Get up, your well hasn’t gone dry

Get up, you paid enough
Get up, just let your fears subside

Get up, you paid enough
Get up, rejoice in what you have
