Dead Love
Pounding on the rib cage
Of this long lifeless love
No defibrillator
Can bring its spark back home
Dying by the minute
Point of no return
Long ago we killed it
By jealousy and scorn
Poisoned by corruption
Tortured by mistrust
Consented to death sentence
Inside our comfort zone
Trapped into this bedroom
The sheets turned icy cold
The levels of desire
Reminisce the North Pole
We lingered within four walls
Just not to be alone
Reminding us each hour
Where did it all go wrong?
The hostile winds are howling
This ship cannot be steered
Let’s sink it to the bottom
For once let’s be sincere
If we cut wide and open
The corpse of this dead love
We may not find a thing
That was worth fighting for
You’d like to do
postmortem
Why don’t just let it go?
You might not like the causes
That killed this long dead love.
