Poison In My Veins [Collab]

by Sweet Fragility   Jan 15, 2008


Flowing through my bloodstream silently, sweetly.
On this night I will die from the poison in my veins.
Closing my eyes as I'm helpless and left for dead.
Slowly draining my life while nothing else remains.

Flowing through my bloodstream silently, sweetly.
Feelings of despair for living a broken existence.
There's an emptiness in the pieces of my soul,
As darkness overwhelms me without resistance.

Flowing through my bloodstream silently, sweetly.
Numbing the pain as I choke upon my final breath.
There's nothing anyone can do to try and save me.
My eyes close and I drift one step closer to death.

Flowing through my bloodstream silently, sweetly.
Feeling bitterness for past mistakes remembered.
So many regrets and lost chances for salvation,
As my soul flickers with its last burning ember.

Flowing through my bloodstream silently, sweetly.
Saying my last goodbye as tears run down my face.
On this night I will die from the poison in my veins.
Fading away from this life without another trace.

    You both did a great job each line came to life as the imaginary metaphor of the poison expressed intense emotion

    A perfectly assembled piece, everything in balance. Insightful repetition that works with every line as ever good repeated line should. I feel this is just what I needed to read tonight.
