Death, A Mask
February 9, 2015
Death the mask over your face
Suffocating and cloyingly sweet
Beauty a sin
Devil’s masquerade
And evil the pinnacle of all of our hope
Red ribbons fall freely
Trace trails down your chin
Eyes gone dull
Tarnished and faded and golden no more
Roses choked blue
And violets stained red
Our shavings of peace
Reposed splinters to your soul
