//=time() ?>
wither away my
skeleton of dead roses
stitched wounds
sad forgotten cries
of yesterday's romance
yearning for closure
dripping memories,
dance around in my bones
she took all of me
drained my heartstrings
of desire to bloom
from burning ruin
#DarkLines
Eyes cut into mine,
swallowed 'em whole,
empty pockets of
abandoned armour
fighting to be
unbroken windows,
& now you're torn,
left alone to stitch
your own wounds,
& I became the legend
of a girl you knew.

In the fairytale castle
They sharpened their blades
The king of hearts
And the queen of spades
They climbed the dark tower
Where the north wind blows
There they sleep for eternity
The thorn and the rose

She reigns
in purples
and blues.
Though
unable
to see,
our queen
will always
discover
the wrongs
you do.
She rules
over a
surreal
land,
to you
and me.
We must
change
our perspective.
Then,
we shall
bleed
how she
bleeds.

A crown of violets
For her purple reign
And the queen
Of the underworld
Will spare your soul
If you play her game

As the mist clears
silent pulse
heart miss a beat
not again !
virulent pathogen
spewing vitriol
rose will not die !
she is wired to fight back

Grief's storm
twists
seconds
into minutes
into hours
into days.
A sorrow
wrenching
skies
in all
greys.
It deepens,
pulling us
towards
should be
forgotten
yesterdays.
So I sit
with a
friend
who watches
the world
with me.

Don't be my nightmare
But my dream
Love me until
Fragile heart believes

Inked in
sanguineous
tones
was her
crown,
and with
true
grit,
our queen
never
backed
down.
Seemingly
soft
was her
every
edge,
but deep
inside,
she
harboured
it.
What, you ask?
Never
you
mind,
lest
it hears
your
thoughts.

The moon in Virgo
and the beast inside
He captured her
with a soft caress
Red roses & blood
from his sweet heart
#DarkLines #WrittenRiver
He carried the axe
She sharpened the blade
Souls decomposed
In the shade
Silent forest
Last heartbeat
Nature's revenge
Was sweet
