drink me a cyanide moonbeam

If only the muse could see me cry in the rain


drink me a cyanide moonbeam

while I sit here in the rain

delicate as a heartbeat 

i watch you 

and listen 

and share the last of the light

i cry

a lonely journey

here 

in the rain

i cry a lonely journey

of silver embrace

of pallid remembrance

of watching from a distance

and stripping the dreams of this madman

dampened in the rain that matters little

to the heart that feels 

less of the loneliness

of one that has come into a life

as I watch

listen

and cry

but no-one sees

forever

in this

that I write

for you

  3. Beautiful. I especially like this part:


    i cry a lonely journey

    of silver embrace

    of pallid remembrance

    of watching from a distance

    There is a limit to the empathy of the rain, to the empathy of a heart lost in the rain. Nice

  6. a mix of beauty and pain man....its hard and like minds or rain bring little in the way of comfort, having lost its wetness....
