Mask

by sarah   Nov 8, 2006


The sun rises,
Yellow disguises,
Falling down a blackened well
Holding my breath, who can tell?
Green bottles smash against my face
Slowly breaking, unravelling like lace
The roaring fire to hard to contain
Strips my strength to turn insane
Whispered promises turn to ash
Until it leaves an angry gash
Grey translucent smoke
Billows upon a dying oak
