Score Of The Brush

Poetry

Lines harsh and dark

Leaving to real

Moving about

What is this

I move

My hands tight on the brush

Gripping

Tight tighter

Hold on hold on

Blood running down

Snap

And the brush breaks

And right on time

The blast of the alarm

Goes off

Up right

And I stare

My hands covered in bandages

Bandages from the day before

Running cold

What else was I to do

Even as I throw the covers off

Dropping blood

Reality is

And dreams break through.
