From Your Lips-For M

from your lips the light drips 
what you are trying to hide 
is beginning to seep out 
I can see it puddling 
on the floor

the secrets of the damned
are hiding from the sun
eyes squeezed shut 
try to hold them in

your shadow slips to the floor like a fist
deep shades dancing 
with the days old whores
aggressive eyes, swinging hips
bright against the black abyss
