Bleeding Diamonds And The Collapse Of Myself.

Contributed by bleedthelove on Monday, 22nd February 2010 @ 11:18:42 AM in AEST
Topic: SadPoetry

She stands there with diamonds bleeding from her eyes
While I burn crosses from the past to crucify the lies
These are my scars...and I continue to wear them
And these are my scars...but she continues to bare them
Scratching at the walls to break inside
Eager to love what once had died
But I don't know how to paint this tragedy in pretty colors
To erase the faces of empty ex-lovers
The struggle of heart versus mind
How can I find peace in the angels arms when the devil's so close behind
The lines of clarity have become so thin
I can no longer define what I feel within
Except regret as her tears bleed down my skin
How can I stand here and become what I despise
Watching the love slip through the creases of my wounds as they begin to cauterize
My arms reach to hold her and console her
But my heart defies progression and only grows colder
As the falling ashes rest like angels of salvation upon my shoulders
Her fingertips begin to lay like skeleton keys upon my soul
I can only pray her touch will set me free
Bringing me back to that place where every kiss tastes like vulnerability
As if nervous butterflies are swimming through my energy
When innocence didn't need a disguise
And promises weren't laced with lies
When diamonds represented forever instead of weeping eyes
But I can only hope that she forgives me...
As I stand here...becoming everything I despise.
