Black Veil

Black Veil
 Concealed face.
 Lament to the grave.
 Elegy to a splinter.
 Appearance never.
 Obtrude often.
 Never forgotten.
 Write you a bloody letter.
 Many miles to find you.
 Elaborate to a puzzle.
 Find my way to you.
 You're a gorgeous deity.
 Will you wait for me?
 It’s too late.
 Memories fade.
 Black veil to sorrow.
 Out of time tomorrow.
 You vanished right by me.
 Darkness burning orange shines.
 You were the one.
 Behooveth to the sun.
 A cemetery holds our reflections.
 Drown in liquor smoke as the sun sets.
