Love Letter

This is my weeping love letter
And the ink is all the tears I’ll never cry
As I wander nearer suicidal death
So afraid of feeling anything again

I ache emotionally ragged
The cruelest words could not but bring
One more surging heart-emotion
Kiss me and I’ll die from pain

The smile you see is manufactured
The laughter jest and emptiness
Forgive my social isolation
True healer you will never be

I wish my heart would only break
Spilling every final drop of blood
Killing dying I surrender
Forget me as you turn away

Or did you think that you could save me
Virgin child still a whore
How many have you given chase to
Instead of waiting for my dying eyes

I plunge steal swiftly violence
Spurting blood destruction sinking body
Watch me I redeem myself
Of one more passion betraying fire

Is there nothing holy white
Excellent beauty divine affection
I seek the impossible unworthy
And fail and fall and

This is my weeping love letter
The ink is all the tears I’ll never cry
I wander nearer suicidal death
Afraid of feeling anything again
