An innocent angel you aren't,
but a child you'll always be...

Smiles melting away,
from this treacherous heat...

So numb
words never sound right...

**This poem is long overdue to someone who I know...
We stood tall just like the mighty Elm...

Lips slowly parted,
invoked the devil inside...

Your love lies melted in sticky puddles, scattered...
unable to wash away it stays, ingrained in my skin...

I have a disease.
A sickness...

Red tint
masks the once white glow...
