Decay
i look up
as i watch ash fall from the sky
pale
like my skin
paper thin
from days gone cold
in the rain;
frostbite took away the pain
don't worry darling, soon you won't feel it either
sick
viscous blood
through my veins
down it crawls
licking lips and bloody stains
i sigh at the screaming masses
don't worry dear, you'll be deaf soon enough
dead
dark candle flame,
no one ever feels the shame
i came to cauterize my sightless eyes
long since dry;
didn't have the time to cry
they didn't take the time to die
but it happened anyways
don't worry love, your heart will turn to stone
it always does
