I used to view the world
Through bright majestic eyes
Contrary to my perception
It was midnight in disguise

I was subdued to aquamarine
And melodic turquoise shades
Of sudden I transformed so darkly
In the most natural of ways

I juxtaposed with the wicked,
The lurid, and the vile
Icy stares hold question marks
For my crimson blood denial
