most recent words
they are intended
to entice!..

that Angel with
The Eyes of Ice.

(who melts my
Soul.)

dear imaginary fan.

If an Angel
trips upon it's

will it tempt
(with Lust) The

(and Steal Our
Second Birth.)

Should I keep
This Truth a

such roses never last.

Roses Never Last.

I sit up
Eating Words
until I Shit
My Heart Out
for you.

(but the smell
of Roses
makes it all
seem worth
it.)

Did you
ever think
it would be
The End so
Quickly?

That I
would Rant
away The Hope
We Had
For Better
Things?

I Always
figured that I'd
talk myself
back into
The Lonely.

(and Perish
Due To The
Torment
Our Love
Brings.)
_

Still,..
I Wish
I could've
touched
your Heart
enough so that
you didn't Shit
Me Out This Fast,

but..I imagine
it's only Nature.

(Considering
such Roses Never
Last.)

without you i am damned

Your Tears could

(and Make The

Forgive me Love
for What I Am..

for
you deserve
so
Much Better..

than a Haunted,
Broken Man!

(who is
Darker since
we're
Not Together.)

My Love is
True in Spite
my Errors...

Truer than
The Truest
Truth!

Truer than
The Midnight
Terrors!

(which
stained
My Soul in
Youth.)

so
Forgive me
my Love..

for
everything
I Am. (and
cannot Be.)

but
Without You
I Am Damned!

(and deprived
of Destiny.)

and then my angel said

and then my angel said:

The Mirror has many faces..
i will find it for you..because
our love is faceless and a
Faceless Love is capable
thus of Seeing The world
in all it's Graces."

to which I replied:

"There were dead things
here before..(within this heart)
until you came knocking on
My Door..and showed me
your angel art."

The pictures that you painted...
oh Love!..I've lived in them since...
walked the Gray sand beaches.. while bleeding beneath the
weeping stars! 

(eager to repent.)

She laughed...before replying:

Never Before. (has the dark so sweetly smiled)

Never Before.

She lowers
her
eyes against
The
Night's Bleak
Suffocation..

"this is
Torment."

She
Thinks..

(This
Absence
of His
Words.)

The
Darkness
before
has never
Smiled so..

Nor fiercely
clutched
Her Golden
Heart.

(refusing
to let it
Go.)

This is
Madness...
surely..

but the
Cleansing
kind..

which
Frees
The Mortal
Soul!!!

(allowing
it to Shine
More
Purely.)

Madness
fit for
A
Queen
of
Devils
Damned,

who has
Always
been God's
Favorite
Lamb!!

(with
Intentions
White as
The
Morning
Snow.)

She is
The
Thin

that keeps
him from
falling
into His Mind's
Lone Abyss..

and choking
on
The Ashes
of
a Black,
Half-
Dying Sun!

(which
brightens
considerably
when
they Kiss.)

Tis rare
to
be Perfect
for
One Another,
in An
Imperfect
World..

but
With The
Madness
of Their Love
they Save
Each other,

Thus will
Not
Be Defiled!!!


(and never
before has
The Dark So
Sweetly Smiled.)
