Set In The Sun

by @MisfitOfSociety

You were so close to me. Every heart beat pumped you closer to me. But you were just poison being injected in. I tore my heart out before it could beat again. We stretched the horizon, Our pallet decorated the sky, For one sweet moment it was just you and I. Your sunshine kissed my closed eye lids. Even when they were closed you still managed to seep through, I couldn’t escape the image of you. But you set in that sun, And never rose again. You took the warmth with you, After all you put me through. It is painful to feel you. What was once petals is now thorns. Bleeding me from every pour, But you don’t seem to care at all. You handed me a revolver, And urged me to pull the trigger. It was hard for me to tense my finger, But you convinced me that this was for the better.
