my lady, my love, my deadly beauty

absent of malice
without a touch of sin
neither dreaming
nor sleeping
beautiful blue
skeletal and pale
with pencil thin
Veins
visible through your skin
no doubt you don't care
when nothing else
remains
within
exquisite corpse
no longer breathing
spiritless flesh
no longer believing
in the promises
of the grieving
mourners
you have
somewhere else
that calls you to be
hanging upon a thread
still beautiful but dead
elegant majesty
no hope for the wicked
delicate blasphemy
magnificently twisted
entropy's path
existence wrath
tears fall upon your face
keep me in your embrace
eternity is short time
well worth the wait
keep you in my mind
for my heart's sake
