Bleeding White

Emotionless waking dreams.
Endless cascading screams.
Hurried glances in anger and pain.
Hushed sighs calling the insane.
Decaying corporeal fires awake.
Destroyed in a burning lake.
Echoing rumors piercing like a knife.
Embers fading in rotten life.
Bleeding white and gasoline.
Boxed up, never to be seen.
Hearts bled in crimson red.
Happy thoughts are all dead.
Drown out the memory.
Drink yourself; released and free.
Float and spin in whispered breath.
Fight your way in death.
Notions unseemly disperse;
Nuisance and hurt is the curse.
Despair hangs over the misunderstood.
Dread of velvet covers the neighborhood.
Winter lies and summer deceit.
Watch my soul of bittersweet.
Bodies of liquid sea in an ashtray.
Branded envy and a forgotten yesterday.
Lingering in the glimpse of night.
Lost in rancid flesh and bleeding white.
