Heaven Is Her Suicide.

Where the rainbows hid behind the golden trees,
Her heart shattered, it brought her to her knees,
And in his hand, he held a sapphire porcelain tear,
Crystallizing from the warmth of all his fear.
Two fools in love, with hearts naive and young,
She can taste blood, from bite marks on her tongue;
When he holds her and lies, but she won't say -
What she really means to say, there's no right way.
And covering her in ecstasy, he shades his bright eyes,
Subliminal messages hidden in his myriad of lullabies.
The sunset swallows their silhouettes, hand in hand,
Strewn along the horizon, feet buried in the rusty sand -
And he held her in his arms when she slowly died,
But she won't admit, that Heaven is her suicide.
