Drown

Water laps around me,
Pulling me under,
Soothing my burnt skin,
From my killing wonder.

The car we one sat in,
Was lit up with flames,
Until I drove us in,
The lake with sudden waves.

Darling, I'm sorry,
That this is how it ends,
The water full with smoke,
With bones full of broken mends.

I didn't mean it, I'm sorry.
That I drove us down,
I guess my anger just lost it,
And now we're here to drown.

Poisoned Lullaby

Edged with poison, This lullaby, Drug induced haven, My child's eye, Focusing darkly, This wicked lie, Defeats me. Life, This paradise, A slice, You gave me, Love, You saved me, And snatched it away.

Snow White Is Dead

Innocence in a sad world. A silver streak in a dark cloud. Finding purpose to keep shining. Alone and fighting. The song you hear. Pain, loss and hate. Be sure she is not its singer. Friend or foe.

||Caught||

He laughs and screams. My skin tears at the seams. Slather on the lotion. Drink the deadly potion. Trail your fingers on my skin. You commit this terrible sin. Upon my crevices goes your tongue.
