Sweet blood dripping
from a split vein,
decadence.
Dancing along a razor’s edge,
it offers a sweet caress,
a kiss of bliss.
Scarlet tears,
falling from lifeless eyes.
Hollow heart,
torn from a dead chest.
Sweet release,
feeling so alive,
the numbness lifts.
The freedom it brings,
offers a surrender,
sacrifice like no other.
Midnight whispers,
promises in the stale air,
tears unseen or heard.
Falling into darkness,
shadows overwhelming,
screams at last set free.
