Conversations of a Beaten Diva

by NyellMoonlight   Feb 10, 2008


I'd just whisper those obscure butterflies,
let them cry fractured stellar light inside of you
burning and disappearing within these eyes of mine
set to rise, raised to set, behind deranged horizon.
Mock me... I am truly not real.

I'd just swallow every shard of pain and let it flicker,
too many emotions embody to dance across the table
clashing with my peaceful luna [my peaceful luna is dead];
drink this nocturne with me, press your dagger against my skin
leave me shattered, leave me shattered, shattered...
cause I'm tired of licking overused words.

Sip this poison on the facet of my champagne kisses.
- recollection comes and rips the heart from the chest
[she knows that]; still, in the middle, I rely on your hedgehogs
to lead me straight to hell, where the fire can be my fuel.
Two dots came to evanescence, came to be forgotten-
Mock me... I do not deserve to be real.
