his eyes grew dark
slowly he faded away

With metal piercing bullets?

Proceedings switch the color of your face,
taking breaths, piercing masses on the course.

Lent them my heart, no question
I have frenemies
Took their best shot, piercing words
Hurt just like flying arrows

and man shall live forevermore
because of that Christmas morn.

Powerful and beautiful.

And two piercing green eyes
She screams for me to let her out.

fire burns all mendacity,

Pearly and piercing, innocent and intact
And I wondered in fact:
How does one have eyes like that?
Till I told myself, "She robbed the cat"
