Obscurity crept inside two irretrievable souls,
She was his moonlight in the somber night sky
He was her drizzle after years of withdrawal
From the diligent streets of London started the tragic enchantment of love and pain
Injecting misery and destruction in the pretentious form of affection
They became each other’s safe haven from the sadistic world
Living and breathing in each other’s company with the sound of blood gushing through their veins
Remembering the cheap motel sheets and the brisk cold water
What was sanity?
That overwhelming fear drowned the sorrow
Lingering feeling of the drug kept us awake in the cloudy midst of January
Her delicate touch made my trivial existence matter
Sleeping beside me her delicacy seemed surreal
She was my pain but she was also my cure
Her inflection was running in my veins
I loved her from every inch of my aching soul
I knew she was in affliction,
Her eyes carried that anguish and despair
I just want to redeem her
Why do I feel so empty?
Blood’s dripping down my fingertips,
I need her upholding me
The cacophony of the blood stained blade on the ice-cold linoleum
Silence crept to every rim,
All that was heard was the resonate of destruction and torment
She looked angelic even in demise
She is set free from this ruthless realm of heartache
I saved her.
