A New Chapter
Black doves passing by windows thaw
Trying to free your burdened lock
I am trapped within your trick
I lay here on white distilled dirt
Own a cowards sleep
Thinking of thee allure bloom
Crowded with black sheep
An ancient papers love
Disapears among sands peril
Lost in time
To be judged by the devil
I condemn coherent butterflies
But the message lies within ashen lace
Deceiving my heart as it slowly dies
For I see your delicate face
Escaping of your soothing voice
Frigid tears plop in sultry heat
Among these sinister violets
