Lover, we are Dying

By xserratedsoulx



You are Reaper,
And
I, your Eager Victim.
You Bleed Venom
Beneath worn Fingernails,
But I,
I am too far away
For kissing those Fatal Wounds…
Lover, you are Savage.
And I, I am Broken Reed.

    Profound. Something in it struck a chord with me, though I'm not sure what. Nice work.

    "You Bleed Venom / Beneath worn Fingernails" - short write but captivating all the same - maybe to die with who you love isnt such a tragedy after all.
