It’s a world stripped of colour
Everything is horror film grey
Claustrophobic silence the birds forgot to sing today
I watch fascinated as my hands bleed
They bleed little letters
Little silent letters that plummet to the ground
I don’t try to catch them
They shatter on the cold earth
The sound a loud whisper in the silence
They leave shards
Shards that cut my feet
So I bleed little words
