And I return from the place of anguish,
the school of truth,
learning the physicalities which permeate into complexity.
I swam in its cesspool of blood,
blinded for two cycles by crimson sweat.
The distance of my mind grew weary,
I had lost all forms of my being,
attempting to scurry towards my sanity,
but the crimson enveloped my mind.
The self became my sanctuary,
the crimson became my war zone.
intimidated and alone,
afraid and pessimistic.
I found refuge in my ears,
her voice called out to me,
but the image felt homely,
she questioned me,
and taught this one to not fear,
who I am, I am, and it should not be hidden.
Over night the crimson oceans looked like blue skies,
and my sanctuary began to expand,
her words give me power,
her understanding gave me hope,
and her ideals gave me love.
The light she shared,
opened my own,
illuminating the ways into a present future.
Now I am back with a vengeance,
and you might just wish to be afraid.
