Blood in her kiss

Wearing my heart on her sleeves,

kissing pain away in light of hope.

Heaven is a lie without her touch,

yearning to burn in hell for her.

She licks the blood in my love,

denying the loss of letting go.

Holding me in as her own,

helping me see who I am.

Fiery tomb covered in ice,

frozen love beating love’s blood.

She was there in my eyes,

blindly seeking in front of me.

I did it all for her to have my love,

dying for a life so beautiful inside.

Autumn rain frozen soul indignity found,

ripping away from the sins in my eyes.

Poison fills my tongue kissing life away,

lights killed by the darkness in my heart.

I am the river in her eyes crying for my love,

she is the light that gives me shadows to hide.

Nothing I am without the only kiss I need,

waiting frivolously for what she has in me.

Her lips my reason for life left at all,

helping light and darkness find love in one.
