Where once I saw only black and white a rainbow of colors sprouts now Spiraling around my frame, I open my eyes to see clearly Tired of walking in the shadows, I let them crawl across my skin As I recall them one at a time, resurrect the memory within With the gentle kiss of a razor blade, I show you the color I painted my sky Not at all black or grey, not even the slightest hint of blue I painted it in vermillion, the most familar shade of mortality Perhaps out of the feebleness of a depressed mind to grasp That my beloved vermillon is the color of love too. A twisted sort of duality, perhaps a symbol not meant to be understood Yet it seems appropriate that I painted the sky with my blood
