lost and delirious

two people in deep love that end up dying together

 Your features seem so murky to me

so unbearable to distinguish

blood pouring from your hands

questioning what had happened

 

slowly reaching out to you

moving your hands away

finding out you had just shot yourself

"too much sadness in your life

too much depression to bare"

was what you had told me

 

before you disappeared into the darkness

I heard you whisper something to me

my ears couldn't bare to listen

but I knew I had to

 

"I love you"

was what you told me

my eyes pouring

so hard turning into blood

 

I whispered back

"I love you too"

took the gun out of your room

taken less than a heart beat

joining you

 

holding hands

pouring blood

no more but love

can keep us apart

this is how powerful true love can be
