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
