Water is the symbol for life
Black is the color of darkness
And I am the meaning of me

Rain seems like tears
When you cry in the rain
Blood seems like water
When you bleed in the sea

The pain I have has fallen from me
As I slice my veins away

Blue is the emblem for water
Shadow slime in the darkness
And I am the meaning of me

Sky seems like skin
When you stand in the cold
Death seems clearer
Through bloodshot eyes

The pain I have has fallen from me
As I slice my veins away

While I bleed in the sea
While I cry in the rain
My skin seems like sky
And death becomes clear

The pain I have has fallen from me
As I slice my veins away


~this needs alot of revision i know. the last half doesnt flow so well, so i need comments, cause im not sure how to fix it.

Out of all the chaotic imagry you say, "And I am the meaning of me." Try to capture the essence in this ocean of blood. I like the poem as a whole.
