a letter
Dear God...
Here i lay my crimson heart
blackened with burnt desires
for the one who suffers no more
who knows no pain
Here i lay my last breath
deep beneath the silent shadows
for the ones long forgotten
in a shallow grave,far from eternity
Here i bare my empty soul
cruel enough i'll never bleed
never bless
for the one who doesnt desire
the one who doesnt have a name....
who is never really there.
for the one like you
