Death and COmpan
December 1, 2010
Cigarettes and Eyeliner
Scattered in the ashbin
Cryin' as the last spark
dies
The lighters around them
are drained of fluid
and the last matches
burned before
hell froze over
As the moonlight shines
faintly into the window
the wind becomes tipsy
as the piano strums
its melancholy chords
The wind blows softly
letting the window's skirt
flow oh so smoothly
against the stillness
of the sooted rose
And as Satan's womanly figure
Appears in the rivers
One may ask one's self
What is it to be living?
