That is all

That is all

A Poem by Wraith.

When mental illness trudges the way 
Pulls down the walls of reality
Abrupt end to this opera
Thick black curtains verge upon

Something forgotten
Grey pallid stretch
No vivid genesis
The worlds conception in a mushroom cloud
In starkest sunless silence
I watch the raining fragments

Like a worn reel vomiting its movement 
Like life inside the projector
Drained of its colour
Drained like a sickly human

I watch whats left is rife with cancer
Agonized in a dress of tumours
I see you running
Against the bitter glare of the sunset

i like the "worn reel vomiting its movement"

like it all...you so aptly give us the play of mental illness...the bitter glare, the tumors..and the person seeing her own mind running away...and the curtain falls hard...
