I Bleed

Memories of your soft skin haunt me 
Tracing the dimples of your body 
used to set my fairy tale so free 
I now hemorrhage at my love core, 
a rupture of your affair before  
My life trenched in a living cold war 

I bleed red waves of relentless pain, 
throbbing tracks of a cold diesel train 
My lost mind an abyss of black rain 
light escapes my present closed sight
I am not able to see the right 
I can only see a vengeful smite 

My blood runs out as the lonely night
a Cut now brings forth the dying light

Pardon me......your "fairy tale"? I misread it as fairy tail. I just wanted to know more...
