Across The Universe

I tried thinking about the point of the Universe yesterday

But it blew my mind thinking about it

[just like the shotgun my best friend once held to his head]

Crystallised shattered pieces of my fragmented eyes

Covered the snow

As I cried scarlet tears of blood

[like the blood that covered the wall behind him, and the floor, and my hands]

Pure liquid ink running from my soul

Heart fossilised due to countless rejections

Of publishing companies

[he never made it very far either]

One word standing out on the sharp shards of my denunciation

 “sorry”

[that word always stained his lips]

Another blank page blinking back at me

[another character down]

Cluelessly from my computer

[my friends are all in my head]

Do I have enough passion to face yet another rejection?

[I need a proper hobby; my faith in myself is dwindling]
