Indigo

poem about my view of a friend and my attempt at helping him.

The maze of him leaves a residue
of a wandering wonder unknown.
Reaching for the light,
as Inferno licks his mind,
drowning progress that was his fate;
Destructively aware.
Through these eyes that glimmer in the shadows with pain,
sun sets on hope,
and the night strangles her faith.
Malificent faces smile greedily
on his soul,
taunting her fear of "attempt"
leaving a blinding fog over this plane of existence.
A maddening tranquility...
