In the sheltered black overcoat,
Soaked through and through
Hair plastered to your face,
And eyes closed.
In the worn out skin,
The too small shoes
Lips murmuring a song,
That was forgotten once
When the moon went blue.

The blood red rain,
Pours over the porcelain hands
Gripping the spaces between the fingers,
And squeezing nothing tight to your chest.

Hold the flesh back,
Innocently seeking the jaded yellow of a dying sun
A dying one
White confession, truth fading past.
Admitting the pain of scalp against drumstick thought’s
Breathe more alone, as the footsteps
Traipse the pavement home again,
Drifting buckwheat eyes.

Another walks close; hold’s the blood red hand,
Dries the black tears, looks at the blue moon,
Admires the yellow sun and adds his own white confession,
To yours.
Yeah, sure, love.

Thanks

I find it kind of funny, I find it kind of sad. The dreams in which I'm dying are the best I've ever had. - Gary Jules, Mad World.
