Crimson Wings

by LostEnigma   Mar 7, 2007


I don't want to sleep anymore

forever seems so long

these dreams feel so real now

was what I did so wrong?

If it would stop the fear

I would end my life

following these apparitions

only leads to strife.

Their lullabies call to me

but I'm already asleep!

I helped them with their secrets

am I in too deep?

I'll follow these red butterflies,

I have no other choice

whenever I follow them

they lead me to his voice

I wake up in my home

yet nothing is the same

the spirits seem to follow me

is this someones game?

I enter my red room

were the dream photos real?

I'm covered in the crimson red

and I fear what they reveal

I hear the rain outside

won't it ever stop?

a constant reminder of that day

the car on its top...

My mind reels as night falls

I can't keep sleep at bay

I fall into another dream

will it always be this way?

I hope this dream will end soon

the fights have grown so long

I sleep yet I'm still tired

and I'm closer to that song

The bruise appeared when this began

and still it seems to spread

the design of that tattoo

the butterfly wings of red

I can hear his voice again

could it really be Yuu?

when I find the answer,

what will I do?

Why did I have to be the only one

and spend all my nights here

I will find Yuu and join him

then we'll both disappear.

Then I will finally end myself

of the mansion in my dreams

the never ending photographs,

the crimson butterflies and screams.

( I wrote this after playing the final installment of a crazy ass video game called fatal frame)

    I thought this was an interesting poem, but I felt it didn't make much sense. I couldn't really see a story in this, which is what I prefer, but never the less, I felt you kept a good rhythm and flow throughout.
