Dark Red

by LoVerSLaND   Oct 29, 2013


We'd sit in a diner
Talk for hours, no where else to go
Share half of a half sandwhich
Until our love was a no-show

Kissing in alleys where cats flew
He looked into my eyes and I told him there's only a few
Wet cushions on my neck
I pretended to see how much money he spent

At night, it took me hours to sleep
Seeing as reality made me the most happy
In the morning, we'd check on our friends
Then I'd dance until evening came

I made alot that day so I bought him a gift
We went out to eat, then in a fountain
We threw a penny and made a wish
As I watch him lay asleep I stuffed the gift under his papers

In the morning when I awoke I felt no arms around me
Instead, I watched someone lay dead
My heart. My savior
In a note, there it read...

I'm sorry but I can no longer live like this
My love, I'm sorry, your kisses I will miss. I will see you later
A knife, and the color of our love lay behind him
A deep dark red, every second engraving my heart with pain.
