I tasted heaven on her lips.
How can love so pure,
Be piercing sin?
If the shadows of hell,
Are where I shall be outcast alive,
I'll go so willingly.
Behind scarlet flames,
The beauty of our love survives.
Love who you want to love <3

Leave me to my melancholia, will I ever make it.
The only saving grace is no longer lit.
Tonight will be impossible to survive.
The moments we've shared will help revive.
The elements were against me for so many nights.
It's however this night we meet.
Butterflies are leading a large fleet.
With ultimate sacrifices made before each start.
Can you imagine a goodbye after I depart.
It's a brighter picture that fulfills my heart.

I don't want to touch your body.
No, darling. I want to touch your soul.

it's a shame
that we cannot
appreciate
what others have
without comparison
word: shame

Look at me;
watch as my body
caves to your
everything.
Your hands are
like a poison
seeping into
my skin,
infecting every
inch of my body.
But please,
continue on,
I won't dare ask
you to stop;
You're easily the
worst, best thing
that's ever happened
to me.

The curtains close
over our eyes
And the guns play firework
lullabies

And the band marches
into our dreams
tonight
Parading beneath
our red spotlight

Encore, encore!
We're not satisfied
Their limbs are tired but
the *****'s not dried

The stage demands
its sacrifice
Sleep cannot comfort while
closed eyes still cry

It's going to be a grand collection.

There are two types of pain:
One that hurts you
And one that *changes you

You're a shovel.
Digging a deep hole in my chest.

I can feel my every breath
whirling around with no way out.

Make it stop.

Familiar paths
are not always
the best ones
to travel

They say the definition of insanity is
continually doing the same  thing
over and over again and expecting
a different result.

Acid Loves Mercury
Grown, shaped to be
A statue, only to seen
Visually yours, nothing more
Internally unreadably
A jester performing, unmoving

Inside the mind, I gallop
A secret, for you, behind closed doors
Or, at least, just out of sight
This is not for the spectators of life
This is my private world, for you

Taking, being taken
Lustful, dark desire
To see and be seen
Without judgment
Concentration, focus

The loss of self
On fire, becoming the flame
Riding emotional, physical
******, mentally owned
Owning the other

A balance in twine
Knotted, spliced together
Brought, bought, sold
Without hesitation
Drawing blood

Coated in each other
A tingle waves, builds
Forced back, anticipation
Brought again, held tight
Around the empaling spike

A release, it comes then again
Riding a wave, emotionally tied
Physically, a piano mastered
Not a slave, without one
There is no other

The wave crests, violence ensues
Assured by the other, safe
A composer of two
The body, bodies
So much more, ours

This, behind the eyes
The statue's mind
Staring out at you
The passé veil
Separates, shields

Never known
To be seen for stone
Posed and dressed
A mask, seen; controlled
Mine for them: bored

To the heart, devilish delight
Worshipping sensual curves
Thinking not that it's sin
Indulging your fantasies
Only now, made them nine
