Scarlett Rivers

Scarlet Rivers--by David Lustrup 2016 if you saw my heart tonight you wouldn't recognize it trodden trampled torn apart before i realized it shredded hanging bleeding tendons torn and tattered you were everything to me you were all that mattered and now im drowning in this blackness circling the drain im going down where is the end to all this madness this misery is so profound memories play like movies in my mind kissing your lips so bittersweet little short films playing constantly tear jerkers on repeat and id give my torn, and tattered heart for a bright tomorrow, where were not apart and id sell my last drop, of blood you see for a single smile, that was meant for me under star filled skies, in the deep dark night i remember you, in the pale moonlight with a million stars, shining in your eyes how much i loved you, you never realized as i pull the trigger as i hit the ground flashes of your face fly as lights are dimming down life is fleeting now as im bleeding out let the rivers flow, the rivers flow, scarlet rivers flow now.
