Psychedelic shadows,
Of fluorescent black & grey.
Transparent self reflections,
Disguised by masquerades.

Bass beat palpitations,
Echo through my veins.
Whispers heard as screams,
When silence calls my name.

Aphotic clouds of air,
Shine poison in the room.
I choke on ventilation,
As each breath I take too soon.

Mind aching numbness,
Detaches me from my senses.
A warped smile forms as I realise...
My thoughts are simply false pretences.
