Her Sweet Death

By Blood of Winter

walking away, I can still smell
your murder on my hands
that touch, your last breath
the only things I can still feel

lush crimson lips
parting with silent questions
smooth porcelain flesh
parting with silent motions

those shaky hands
tangled within burnt autumn hair
a scent of dead roses
tangled within cool nights air

walking away, I can still taste
your sinful desires on my tongue
that sound, your quickened pulse
the only thing I can still hear



*for June*

    *bows* this leaves me with a feeling of awe. the second stanza and the last 2 lines of the third stanza truly allowed me to visualise the words you wrote.

    incredibly descriptive, this paints images that my mind not only glimpses, but studies in awe through a glazed window into your world
