if i could kill you while playing that merciless melody

i would

kill you softly and slowly and lovingly

would you bleed for me?

would you feel my love while i hold your lifeless body?

love is all we need

don’t you know that?

sweet baby

sweet lover

sweet man

you could’ve loved me better

but you were never mine to keep

and now

now your love will perish with me

out into the ocean

we will drift

my mouth finally quiet

mind finally still

floating atop your puffy course

now we will both

be

blue.
