Elyria, Oh *at the moment*

Crimson drops...so bittersweet.
Drop in puddles at her feet.

Showers pour
and faucets rain,
The Red Sea filled
with lust and pain.

One
Two
Cutting more

Three
Four,
Lock the door.

Forging rivers,
Breaking dams,
Crimson flows to distant lands.

Wash away
the hurt and pain,
Drive away the endless shame.

Swimming now
too dark to see,
in the Ocean of Insanity.

Suddenly the downpours cease,
Fall to knees in reverie

Raising hands in silent pleas
Gaping scars her eyes cant see.

Drowns at last,
Her soul now free
in the Ocean of Insanity.

*just a note*

After a couple of people have seen this..
I feel I should write..It is NOT me.  

I promise..its not me. It was inspired by reading I did on the way people deal with their pain...
Im Sorry if it offends anyone...that wasnt my intent.
