In a state of disrepair...

What a broken Valentine
in a clear plastic dress
tied down with dirty twine
and blood dripping down
the crook of an arm

My Valentine's a mess
she said a little prayer
and fizzed and spat
on heated cutlery

Valentine in stainless steel
now bubbling black
awaiting the order
to renew the attack

Memory makes it brighter
sinking down into nothing
So happy it makes me cry
as my Valentine slips inside

What are broken promises
when I no longer feel regret
My Valentine ties a tourniquet
and the loves dripping down
until I'm dead and fade

"They will plunder all your dreams
And take away your teddy bear... "
