Your twinkle makes my eyes bleed
Something pure as blood
I’ve ran miles trying to find your heat
Intoxication never owns up
An infinity pool where the memories never end
Seasonal depression will always forbid my heart to mend

Rough, twisted yet kind
You told me things that could fulfill my mind
Attraction to the red you wore only brought me closer to that
Hole.
Yet the whole story was never clear to me
It was exciting, I never thought I’d be invited to the cookout downstairs
But you made me feel like I could be invited anywhere

Crackling, cackling, beating and barking
I was always aware the walls were burning around me
But I liked playing with fire
The eyes off to the side always taunting me
Serving as a constant reminder
This was the last warm day in October
Soon these Demons would have other plans

It wasn’t so bad after all
Now I’m covered in dirt
Cold as the 31st
Some might see these circumstances as a wicked Trick
But I just remember being there was such a Treat
