in the dead heat of the desert
my heart drank the tears of your soul
and i choked on your poison
as the sand
     like tiny sharp rocks
poked at my feet
and the cactus's bit my skin

i wanted nothing more than to color myself scarlet red
so i flew over the stars of pain
and hopelessly devoted myself to you

you were bitten by the nicks of time
until you lay dead
in the eerie moment of eternity
and your blood
      thick, like molasses
watered the emeralds of the night
i felt your poison slowly flow through my veins

while your soul emptied
           drop
               by
                  drop
