Maroon [suicide note pt one]
Love letters written in dried blood
Memories that were once ancient history
The colors swirling into a galaxy
I woke up today and everything was maroon
She said there wouldn’t be a tomorrow
I hate it when she’s right
I carved her name on my arm
The only memento my body will leave
Besides my heart
Untitled [suicide note pt two]
Bliss is a warm gun
Melting in your mouth
Candle wax dripping into opened wounds
Blistered by the birth of prayers
There was a rainbow over this world
There was a rainbow
Vanished before I could touch the halo
Untitled
I’m leaving this world
A Love Letter [suicide note pt three]
I looked at your pictures again tonight
And when I was done
I smashed my fists into glass
I need to get these demons out of my head
But now there’s just a trail of blood
I smoothed a wrinkled piece of paper out and uncapped my black pen
The one you bought me for our anniversary
I etched out the details of my soul and slowly filled it in with my memories
I still don’t feel any better
Remember I’ll always love you
I keep my promises
To the end
