The Crimson Night Poem by Joanna Gonzalez

The crimson night is like a shattering breeze yet like blazing fire;
It awakes the five senses with intensity in one end and serenity in the other,
It devours your state of reasoning and fills your soul with confusion,
It is like a precious charm that results as your grandest curse,
It is of the most radiant beauties in the face of this earth yet of the most wicked and horrifying,
It plays as a polished path to greatness but is in fact the isle of perpetual pain.
It is the thief of all identities and the subject of all tongues,
It is silent but lives in you,
Although it destroys you, you love it with every ounce of passion.
You treasure it with an amount of value that it does not deserve,
Within its darkness of the night, the crimson color of salvation sparks through that moment of dimness.
This could only be one thing…. Desire.
