    Onyx

    carefree falling
    into twilight fading
    to blackest night
    touching down
    waiting for the graying
    dawn approaching
    i am falling
    i am fine

    singing sweetly
    memories melodies
    trumpet shouting
    drums rhythmic hypnotic
    jazz darkly
    heart beat heavy
    i am falling
    i am fine
    f
    itting smiles
    mirrored eyes
    costumed emotions
    black is white
    white is gray
    red is blood
    i am falling
    i am fine

    i'm pulled inside out
    colored blue and turquoise
    dancing smoothly
    breath quickly
    turning swiftly
    freedom flashes
    i am falling
    i am fine

    coffee grounds
    transcend slowly
    filtering downward
    landing softly
    at the bottom of the cup
    clouds my vision
    i am falling
    i am fine

    cigarette smoke rises
    inhale exhale
    calming heart beat
    relaxing my brain
    trembling my hands
    i see you
    i am falling
    i am fine
