A Lover's Goodbye
Flashing lights
Shining against my skin
Red and Blue
Noise deafening
Close the eyes to escape such fears
Shadows have overtaken me
Drifting desperate to escape
Please
Please take me
Sinking underwater
Thrashing against
The frozen touch
Of the drowned
Faces
So many Faces
All of the past
All of the present
Please
Silence
At last
Drifting with no goal
Please
Drifting with despair tearing at my heart
Please
Thoughts flood
Overwhelming delicately
Please
Sweet taste of vanilla
Freezing my mouth
As rain jumps on my skin
Please
A note bringing tidings
Of my lover’s feelings
Please
Despair at the cold hand
Of a silver haired beauty
Closed and Imprisoned
Please
Underwater
Seeing the rainbow
Of fish flutter by
Please
Bubbles passing above
Please
A hug of love
By family bonded by desperation
After a devastating fit of insanity
Please
One,Two,Three
Dejection, Death, Despair
One, Two, Three
Happiness, Intimacy, Endearment
One, Two, Three
Abandonment, Violence, Destruction
One, Two, Three
Touches, Kisses, Embraces
All gone
At one slip
Please
Hands swarm around
Pulling my limp body
I embrace them as friends
Time has run out
Death has taken
Souls of the night
Please
