If you ever shower me with gifts
I hope you remember
Cemetery flowers
Decaying things
Like our lives before us
Are as beautiful as me
And you
The greatest fool
Always wishing to give me
What I want
Be it silliness
Precociousness
Or downright nonsense
We are a light in the sky
That seems a bit suspicious
A star that is burning too bright
We never should have lasted
We came so close to no ending
Much less a happy ending
Than we did to anything at all
Still your eyes are like water
Murky delight
And my smile though never pretty
Is genuine
Our mouths are venomous
Yet we only bite till it bleeds
My poison is mine
Yours spills beneath you
So as I descend
Find me all in
With a smile and a weapon
