For Andrew

Why does love bite?
Why does it cost so much?
Why do these tears...burn?
Once was told,
“tomorrow shall be ours, my love
I shall, we shall, forever.”

Why given these lies?
Why did she...I’m broken.
Why am I worthless, betrayed?
Once was told,
“our future is bright and shiny
I shall love thee, forever.”

Why this horrible death?
Why am I broken, cold, dead?
Why is the pain...burning again?
Once was told,
“We have a love eternal
our plans will last, forever.”

Now, so much ashes on my brain
the future is garbage, thrown away
all seems so very lost, broken.
Father to father am told,
“Don’t give up, time will heal
never forget...you are loved,
forever.”



bleeding...

"Tis ink coming
from his arm,
Captain!"
