Iridescent

The diamond cut the glass
Until it shattered
Bringing seven years of bad luck
Or was it all imagined
A stubborn mind at play
Creating a stark wasteland
Out of loss of control
To convince oneself
That love does not exist
To avoid the struggle
Tearing down the walls
Of repression and defiance
Blinded by a smile
I can smell you
The sunset is scarlet
I just want to give
The dawn breaks through the night
It looked like a flower
Crimson and moist
My life pumped through those veins
My nights were black and vain
The softness of your skin
Contrasted with the strength of your spirit
The beauty you carry inside
Magnified by your body
Iridescent
