Batchelor

Batchelor Apr 2020

We'll be alright alone.

Everything burns in the end.

Lit sparks

Carried the flame to burn alone

On the wings of a butterfly,

May we find who we are, truly.

Even when we have no face.

"Welcome to my life."

It's Not All About Her - Z

Wicked
Vile
Temptress

Only she was never at fault.

*you were

Should've seen the signs and walked away.

Intentional Dissonance - Z

The best thing you can do today is tell someone you love them.

We're stuck with words in our throats, never admitting how we feel.

Let it go before it's too late.

Fall harder and deeper into the quagmire of love.

God's Acre - Z

Flowers bloom
On graves unattended

Reading from musty tomes

And as I swept the leaves away

Your bones, so yellow and cracked over.

Bending over to kiss the stone

Tracing your eternal sleep

I could have sworn I saw you holding
The most beautiful bouquet growing
From your bones.

"Your skin, oh yeah your skin and bones, turn into, something beautiful."

Freud's Fiend - Z

the lady in red
brings succulent lips
pursed around porcelain

the lady in red
brought voracious lips
wrapped around her digits

the lady in red
bringing seductive lips
clinging around pulsing veins

Mmmm.

Dreamless - Z

We felt the soles of our feet cracking up

As the moon gazed upon our alabaster skin

Silently we went to sleep

And then we woke up to the waves in between us, pushing us away.

"You leave with the tide, and I can't stop you leaving."

Don't Ask About What Happened - Z

Sitting here with heartache

Heart's gone bleeding all over again

Over again and I've never felt so sad

Feels like heart's gonna crack wide open

Wide awake again wondering about you

*Please leave a message after the tone.

A dream about the dream that never was.
