I Fell In Love With a Suicidal Girl

I only tell of sunny hours due to sunny wanting days
Her sandy brown skin and melting baby blue eyes
Told a story of sorrow. I only tell of sunny hours
Due to sunny wanting days, a haunting of shame
Manages to storm her mental mind. Kicking out 
The sunlight that would save her. 

I only tell of sunny hours due to sunny wanting days
Rushing her in and out the dark places and shadows 
Called a hospital. Bloody love is what she called us
Pills that targeted her throat that were linked to the dark
I only tell of sunny hours due to sunny wanting days
For the sunlight would save her, I’d praise.
