Purple haze

The lucid moments are becoming less frequent

When they do arrive, thoughts pour in unchecked

The few that can be tied down, create new life

Then the fog descends, obscuring all

Make the most of the good times, for

One day the fog will lift and there will be nothing

But a vacuum filled with screams
