My blood is sacred for it waters the burning drought that surges the barren outskirt of my skin It ignites the grave of every dead muscle killed for shooting a wide toothy smile across my unquivering lips It tells long forgotten tales of all the women I used to be but failed to see,with eyes shut vomitting tears of self disdain and a widespread rash over my skin My blood is a red flag of relief from a heap of decapitated veins and the sardonic cold inside each ***** Every drop, a stifled scream for help a pitiful plea to be noticed And a scar-let seductress waltzing across each arm In the fading light of room and the dying music of my heart but my sacred blood still shines it spills like barrels of wine down the outskirts of my barren skin and from each tiny particle rises a woman that says "sacred"

Sacred
My blood is sacred for it waters the burning drought that surges the barren outskirt of my skin It ignites the grave of every dead muscle killed for shooting a wide toothy smile across my unquivering lips It tells long forgotten tales of all the women I used to be but failed to see,with eyes shut vomitting tears of self disdain and a widespread rash over my skin My blood is a red flag of relief from a heap of decapitated veins and the sardonic cold inside each ***** Every drop, a stifled scream for help a pitiful plea to be noticed And a scar-let seductress waltzing across each arm In the fading light of room and the dying music of my heart but my sacred blood still shines it spills like barrels of wine down the outskirts of my barren skin and from each tiny particle rises a woman that says "sacred"
