Scarlet Oceans
Immersed
In scarlet oceans,
Fading light
Cease to
flicker.
Grasping porcelain
Windows closed
Weighty tides pulling me deeper
into cloudy emptiness.
Scarlet oceans
bleeding out into crimson rivers.
Muffled sounds
Swirling darkness.
Tranquil silence
Anguish numbed
Glassy windows
Fading light
Cease to
Flicker.
Cease to feel
Cease to
Breathe..........
Bleeding out into
Crimson
rivers.

I hope such gloom has passed for you. I can relate to the feeling this piece of art invokes - Death. I often fantasized about my mother and brother coming home to find me and a toaster fried in the bathtub full of high voltage water. The feeling of death fascinates me still, but it does not make me want to take my own life anymore.
This is a great poem. Each word was selected carefully and insinuates a good deal about your imagination through few words. I'm glad that other people see this too. :) Exaltation to a newcomer. Peace & love to you.
