Love Makes the Worst Memories

By Ultimate Mistake

 Burning flowers to erase the memories
Hiding those smiles under ash and broken dreams
Cleaning the cuts with your tears and small pills
Ingesting until breathing stops and my pulse becomes still
A deceased body containing an already dead sea of hope
It's just all shore and a heart that you broke
No horizon can rise from this ocean
Only anguish and regret are born to take the place of the sky you have stolen
The sun that used to envy your alluring eyes now celebrate the day you said your goodbyes.
It ,once again, cannot be out shined.
It ,once again, is the only thing I can call mine.
To stare at until I go blind, though love has already taken away my sight.
With no sense of direction I stumbled into your devious hands.
With no time to operate I quickly became buried underneath your sands.
So I choke, So I am strangled.
Killing myself with an empty love and vanilla scented candle.
To set the mood. To give false senses of securities.
Now think back and you'll find the answer as to why we ended so quickly.
But no excuses. No excuses.
Understand why I slit my wrists with all the lies you hid underneath,
Why i must burn each flower and rid wounds enflicted from how you tease,
 How I swallow down pill after pill to cure me of your disease.
All I do is tear out the plans we had and all of our wistful dreams.
I want nothing left, no reminder, and no more memories

    ...sometimes it seems like nothing, not the pills or the bottle or the burning immolation of the sun, will erase those memories...
