Stained Lips

Your mouth with blood
Whose embrace has kissed another
I cannot touch your stained lips
The frozen petal that betrayed mine
Traitor of Love, I cast thee away!
Forlorn vagrant of beauty and grace

Your eyes full of frost
I cannot touch your stained lips
The rose that wiltered from sinful breath
Servant of Lust, I beseech thee to stay!
Forever forgotten virtue and vanity

Your heart enduring stones
I cannot touch your stained lips
The oleander that poisoned your spirit
Chaser of Dreams, I enter your world
Eternal whisperer of secrets and sanity

I am sleeping in a pool of blood Don't act like you don't kill me with your words Writing, sleeping, dreaming, singing, ...just ask.
