She seal'd me with a kiss
an' kill'd me with her wrists.
Its skin was red an' torn
an' blood was soft an' warm.
She fed me with her tears,
her droplet chandeliers
an' my pain intensly grew
spoke "I did it just for you"
Her blood reach'd out to kiss me
an intolerable kiss of shame
an' the spatter'd walls rose to point
the wrists that read my name.
I'd gave my word, but I was wrong,
that I would ne'er hurt her.
It hurt, like love, to come to terms
that I had caus'd her murder.
O'er her body, I did weep.
Ne'er her body, would I keep.
O' right beside her, I did lie.
Nex' to her body, I did sleep.
I woke again to hold her hand,
hoping she would understand.
To keep her well, I would die,
than live my life, forev'r damned.
