Swollen eyes As she flies Off To a better land Black skies Cursed With your lips And his sweet lies Maybe this is not a better land Her skin So torpid Cries for another To have and to hold But not forever Just for now I am a sleepless poet Who dreams of dead flowers and bane Take my hand For I can show you the truest pain

Close to death, critically ill
Swollen eyes As she flies Off To a better land Black skies Cursed With your lips And his sweet lies Maybe this is not a better land Her skin So torpid Cries for another To have and to hold But not forever Just for now I am a sleepless poet Who dreams of dead flowers and bane Take my hand For I can show you the truest pain
