Favorite Quote:
"For after all, the best thing one can do when it is raining is to let it rain." -Henry Wadsworth Longfellow


She only ever kissed with her eyes wide open,

She always tasted like cigarettes and burnt black coffee

And no, she never brushed her hair

And she was always in a rush

Sitting in traffic chewing on her brittle nails

 

But the way she looked at me right before

She kissed me made me lose my mind

 

One touch and I was paralyzed for days -

I completely succumbed to her will

 

She stole the life from my eyes right in front of me,

And I apologized to her while she ruined me

 

She doused me in gasoline, set me aflame -

She sat there, warming her hands by my inferno

 

I may be a walking corpse, but I still love her -

I will never regret letting her destroy me,

Because no one could have created a ghost any more beautifully.
