Number Six

I want to be the light in the darkness.
To paint a new obscenity on the wall.
To throw it on the ground.
To say I’m in control of the forces that pull me.
To wield magic over an innocent.

I want to be the illusions on the paranoid mind.
To savor in the sorrows.
To be the vision where there is none.
To say, “don’t abandon hope, not yet.”
To drag a clean doll through the mud.

I want to shine through a fog of doubt.
To create colours you’ve never heard of.
To be the feeling that no words describe.
To say I did my part in the war on love.
To create something real, to create someone.

I want to be the light in the darkness.
