Red

Too close to sixteenth and my thought wandered.

Through my mind and down my cheeks in the form of salt water.

So I wrap my lips around, and **** the smoke into my lungs.

Breathe it out and watch it rise, beautiful and smooth.

Caught up in your trip wires, catching my ankles, I fall at your feet.

As I'm dazed and dizzy, you brand my broken heart with the harsh

letters of your name, deep like broken promises, hot like passionate

hate.
