Revolted fading decay Did pursuade, Like blood on the shore, To write with the blackness of my heart And with hope nevermore The black ink blooms on paperback, With the heart that spurts its veins Accross the page Growing into its darkness and pains The white fading, drimpel, dubbed unpailing With the words posing as potent but poison Possesed in perfect form of pretence... The Words so falsly true... The words bleeding out, "I love you"

Black Blood
Revolted fading decay Did pursuade, Like blood on the shore, To write with the blackness of my heart And with hope nevermore The black ink blooms on paperback, With the heart that spurts its veins Accross the page Growing into its darkness and pains The white fading, drimpel, dubbed unpailing With the words posing as potent but poison Possesed in perfect form of pretence... The Words so falsly true... The words bleeding out, "I love you"
Tribute to Edgar Poe. The poem tells the story about a writer who utterly despises love, but when he himself gets tangled in it, he gives in and writes a letter expressing his feelings towards his love interest...
