Sun glinting on a smoking gun

By BroKen-GlaSSHeArT

killers with bright grins;
draw you in with glittering eyes,
-eager to watch your fall from innocence.

(childhood seeping from baby's first flesh wound)

we ran to the light,
only to find black sunlight
revealing god's damnation.

(we spent the night at the feet of hell's foot soldiers)

all you know;
is a melody of falsehood,
invented to help you sleep at night.
