Bullets Bled With Love.

-Bullets Bled With Love.-

The wind whispered me a touch of hate, that closed all the heavenly gates
Hell never seemed so close at hand
Feelings I've failed to understand
And the tragedy is a song I sing
With the burning sensation in my soul
As I tumble through hells firey pits
And clash against the raging storms
With thunder in my hand and lightning in my eyes
My heart is no longer one of innocence
As my soul burns with a lust for revenge
The devil himself won't dare to see
For no one knows what a girl like me is capable of
My mind's no longer free
As the flames burn all my thoughts
My inner peace flees from my chest
For there is no sincerity for what I am about to do
Just remember this is your gun
And it is not my temple that it is pointed at this time
And as you plead your silent words
And wish your hushed prayers
My eyes will glow with something new
As I put my finger upon the trigger
Images of our past come flooding from my heart
As a tear softly lands on your quivering arms
Trembling, I place the gun upon my own instead
And I bite my lip; holding back my good-bye
Suddenly I feel your hand upon my cheek
And your soft breath upon my neck
Your hand devours mine over top this iron filled of bullets
And you brush your hand across my cheek and wipe away my tears
A gentle kiss whispers the words "I love you."
And my heart bleeds with the words, "How could you?"
The gun's now out of my quivering hand
And smashed to the ground as your fingers entwine with mine
But the smash was not of the ground, and you began to slip away
As I look back on memories and whisper to your corpse "You were nothing to me."
But with the sapphire droplets slipping from my eyes
I turn to walk away, and fall to my knees
With my head upon where I used to listen to your heart beat
And I crumble to the depths of the devils calloused palms
But then his face turned into your smile
And I was taken back to the day I first layed my eyes upon your sweet face
And remembering our promises "We will be together, in life and death."
And my blood shot eyes closed as I took a deep breath and wished for death
We were modern day Romeo and Juliet
And a bittersweet ending is perfect for this matchbook romance
So with my last thought I whisper "We will be together in life, and death... that I promise."
As I close my eyes and fall into my casket; and with a rose in my hands; may I rest in peace
RIP my darling, may we be together forever.
