Love Lies Bleeding
Love lies bleeding.
Coating my hands in red.
Trickling through my fingers.
From the wound in my chest.
Though I look like i'm stable,
The truth is i'm really not.
Though I thought it unable,
A lover's heart can rot.
Love lies bleeding.
I feel so empty and lost.
People are so decieving.
My tears have started to frost.
I have grown cold inside.
Again recoiling into myself,
so I'll have a place to hide.
For the rest of time.
Love lies bleeding.
I have no one to believe in.
Who am I without you?
I'm only one half of nothing.
A hundred days passed,
and I'm still shuddering.
I still see your face in my memory.
When will you set me free?
Love lies bleeding.
I hide behind a facade.
I'm constantly misleading.
That way I won't get played.
I'm a hollow shroud.
A painted husk of skin.
My minds a stormy cloud.
Casting down lightning bolts,
for every threatening situation.
Look at what you've done to me.
You've left me bitter and sour.
A cracked pessimistic beauty.
Who is slightly more cynical.
Love lies bleeding.
These wounds are unhealing.
They'll be until my dying day.
Haunting and devouring me,
In the most bittersweet way.
I'll never be the same again.
The pain inside will never end.
You're the death to dreaming.
My love lies bleeding.
This is a wonderful piece....i read different levels of meaning in it. I have read it over several times and pull something different and new from it each time. That is a sign of a great work for me.
