Soaking up the guilt of her remnant last mistake
He slides the blade beneath his skin and slowly fades away
She watches flying silk scarred colors, die inside the light
He prays for those who find him first, that they won't wonder why
Never fading from his veiw, yet still so out of sight
He questions why he sought the truth, if she could only die
Together going up in flames, the colors shining bright
Spreading wings of fallen names, separation from the night
Sketchy shadows dwell inside, due to lack of tears
She built these walls to hide behind, so they don't sense her fear
Until their final song is sung, so dark and played off key
Hand in hand they'll walk the path, paved in disbelief
Embracing lies and faith untrue, they hold on to one another
But when the solemn truth breaks through, they won't even have each other

I am feelin' that. Your rhymes are becoming very good. Another good read, Em.
