Ash and Blood
When I looked up to feel the rain,
it burned
a teardrop under my eye
and when I opened my mouth to catch it
it was blood
I looked up to see the snow
and let it settle on my face
I stuck my tongue out
to taste it
but it was ash
I wanted rain and snow but I got ash and blood.
And somehow, I think it was better
it burned
a teardrop under my eye
and when I opened my mouth to catch it
it was blood
I looked up to see the snow
and let it settle on my face
I stuck my tongue out
to taste it
but it was ash
I wanted rain and snow but I got ash and blood.
And somehow, I think it was better
