I exist in a realm of unforgivable sadness
Littered with a bleeding anguish
My fingertips dirtied with charcoal
My skin blushed with rose-colored wine
Please do not deny me this
I cling onto the drips of sanity
The honeyed molasses that pours
Deeply and quietly through these veins
Tested in a complete skewed view
Please understand why this is
Could you ever love a soul like this
Bleeding from the inside out
Unfinished paintings on the wall
I'll continue to dream as the bricks fall down
I just need you to hold me close now
Black and white images flash in the sea
Of blue green eyes melting in tears
Dark pools that stain the fabric
Of a soul splattered in acrylic blood
I hope this doesn't shatter me
Hold your breath sweet darling
I'm falling right into your heavy arms
And I can't even breathe anymore
Maybe I'll be revived in this
Or perhaps it will be the death of me.
