The deep see of black engulfs me.
There's only one way to get out,
but that would
going against everything I believe in.

I have no other choice, though.
I need to get out.
I go for it,
I go for
what I've been thriving for all day.

Suddenly, I'm in a deep
sea of red...
too much red, but it's good.
Better than it was before.

Watching it come out from inside me.
It's the one way I know
to escape the black.

No one realizes
that there's black in everyone.
It just takes over
some more than others.

For me, it's horrible.
I'm not strong enough
to get out of the blackness on my own.
I need help from something.
The need to see my insides,
to know that I'm not as black on the inside,
as I feel.

woah, a whole new thought to digest.

ego reputo vestri poema es mirus

-Red

(if you want to know the translation it's in latin, i took latin this year, and next year i'm going in for more latin and some greek)

Inigo Montoya: You seem a decent fellow. I hate to kill you.
Westley: You seem a decent fellow. I hate to die.
