I've left parts of me in yesterday
Parted hearts with sharpened darts
pardoned ends with gardened starts

Hoping the flowers would bloom
into something much more than me in this tomb
I've been consumed by a wretched perfume
With a stench that lingers in this depressing ballroom

Tall plumes fall from cauldron centerpieces
resting helplessly
Smoked cigarettes selfishly cling
to tabacco lungs

Music sheets stained in frames with drunk Love
Blank pages replace the space
where they once naively hung

No more knocks at my door
Just found out
NOW
That I'm drowning
I'm

BLACK ASH 
blankets the planks
Of the PINK IVORY FLEUR
ADAM'S NEEDLE
sneaked the evil 
through the creaking
CEDAR floor 

HONEY LOCUST choked
WEEPING WILLOWS slowly soaked
Like a sty to the IRIS
Your itchy 
SYC-AMORE 
Can't cope

Lost 
in the POISON IVY
with one rush 
of the BRUSH stroke
Our MORNING GLORIES 
Are horror stories  ...

I see a red core and
I want it tainted black
Equipped to be the ripper
Rippin jack from jill
with a pill for thrills
till the cardiac retracts

Fractured on the track of this marksman
who's been sharpening the darts
for his marked men
with a heart sharked by my dark pen 
I darken when the meth wins
mixed with the heroin
in the direction of the death wind 
With the cloud cover disrupting the weatherman 

Together in the tether 
forever in a hole
We suck the soul from your mother 
the payroll from...
