the kiss of death is sweet, swoon black river drowning afterwards you are not the same, drained light as a shade and heavy as a stone, or, later, chasm the rest can see you when you're not there and you find you fade from the day. you seduced me by calling me a ghost-- so strange how we know before we know. once death was both hidden and seen, a higher vision, a kind guide but now he seems a cheap, deceptive ***** visiting everyone, staying with no one, leaving behind nothing and less than nothing.

death goes lips pursed
the kiss of death is sweet, swoon black river drowning afterwards you are not the same, drained light as a shade and heavy as a stone, or, later, chasm the rest can see you when you're not there and you find you fade from the day. you seduced me by calling me a ghost-- so strange how we know before we know. once death was both hidden and seen, a higher vision, a kind guide but now he seems a cheap, deceptive ***** visiting everyone, staying with no one, leaving behind nothing and less than nothing.
