A cold shade of morning
Falls upon broken shadows
A velvet tear
Sliding down a silken face
A cold shade of morning
Falls upon broken shadows
A velvet tear
Sliding down a silken face
For a lying kiss
A whisper of death
Shying through the night
The black sound of love
Flawless slavery of the body
Imprisoned by the heart
A flower dyed with my blood
Your gift to me
Herald of my own destruction
I have cried my last tear
In it I die
Drowning in the sadness it calls
A death of despair
Hiding my face in crimson shadows
Calling for the blessing of darkness
The blessing of oblivian
Running from the harsh daylight
Revealing my darkness
I cry for the shadows
My last tear
I watch you
Through a shattered mirror
Reflecting through me
Ebony shade comforts me
And I sink into the rose-colored shadows
Wondering what I have become
The knife in my chest
That you delivered
Thrown from afar
Killing me
Heart dies
Then soul
Mind
And body
Until all that remains
Is a swiftly fading memory
Dying in the night
Death courts me
His soft promises
Slowly winning my heart
His strong arms holding me
Gently caresses of a life
No longer lived
Do you hear me?
Can you see me?
No longer lost in the shadows
For I have become the shadows
Blending with the night
I hide from the light
Wishing that someone could save me
The world of pretend that surrounds me
Makes me want to die
The lies they whisper to me
Make me sick inside
Kill me
Save me
Let me lie
Why is it
That when I cry
The only one who hears me
Is the one I cannot have
That when I scream
The one to quiet my fears
Is the one already gone
Why do I watch you
Knowing that it can never be
Wishing that I could find a way
To feel your arms around me
Your lips upon me
Else wrap my heart
In a sheet of bleeding ice
And feel my pain no more
Why the darkness
Calling my name
Promises of sweet surrender
Bloody kisses
Covering my spirit
The scent of black roses
Drives me insane
Filling me with dread
The flavour of cherry-coloured death
Thank you for reading my poems!
