Abstract Painting

A work of art, caught in a flash;  
beautiful today but it wont last…  
For all the light you brought;  
darkness is coming and everything we had  
is quickly burning;  
   
I wish you didn’t play that song  
the first time we met; the first time we kissed;  
the first time we fucked;  
the first time we fought;  
 
I wish you didn’t play those songs.  
Now I can’t listen to those songs.  
   
burning in my chest; burning in my lungs;  
waking from the nightmares of your disfigured face;  
I still sometimes… like to look at pictures of you  
and us; and the nasty porn we made together…  
   
I am sick; I am sick, I am sick;  
I feed myself on the past;  
I still sometimes… like to look at pictures of you  
 
I prayed for your death;  
then simply prayed these memories wouldn’t last  
 
I am sick; I am sick, I am sick;  
I feed myself on the past;  
I prayed for your death;  
I still sometimes… like to look at pictures of you  
and us; and the nasty porn we made together…  

I wish you didn’t play that song  
the first time we met; the first time we kissed;  
the first time we fucked;  
the first time we fought;  
 
I wish you didn’t play those songs.  
Now I can’t listen to those songs.  
 
I am sick; I am sick, I am sick;  
I feed myself on the past;  
You were just a work of art,  
caught in a flash;  
beautiful for a moment but it wont last…  
 
For all the light you brought;  
 I… prayed for your death;  
I hold my breath…  
too see you fail…
