Shapes and colours drift in my eyes
Flying around like bees.
People are lovely jumbles of colour,
Faces impossible to see.
They’re here and there,
I see muted outlines of animals
Prancing all around.
The girl in my vision tall,
The pure embodiment of beauty and grace.
She’s colourful too.
Hues of reds and pinks,
Purples, blues, greens,
Yellow and oranges mixed in.
With deep, black eyes.
A rainbow girl.
She fills my sight.
Golden and silver glowing butterflies
Fly around my head.
They circle the girl
Floating specks of yellow brilliance
Float around the space.
Arches of soft blues and greens
Flare around,
Magnificence.
Turning slowly in a circle,
I see colourful life everywhere, then
The girl’s face fills my vision completely.
It all fades to black slowly.
I open my eyes once more
And realise,
I am sitting on my bed in my room
Looking at the mind-numbing white walls
And grey floor
Of my room in the psych ward.
