For Marcus- The only person in the world strong enough to be sane, strong and willing to believe in this battered soul.
The world is just the same
as it was just yesterday
only my colours have run
from vivid green to grey
The slope was more slippery
the sensations did not last
the empty and the dark
engulfed me much too fast
You call to me from the real
and though you draw me near
I am voided by the chemistry
my love, I am not here
The numbness and the trials
and the meds all take their toll
but this is the trade for sanity
the euphoria or my soul
I'm sorry for all I put you through
it doesn't make it right
but I love you enough to go on
enough to stay with the fight
Through the colours brilliant
then the landscape stark
thank you for being here
in the empty and the dark
