Your Cold Accomplice

Broken passion
empty hands
time to cash in
stop the demands
gasp for air
as its sucked away
don't fight fair
it ends today
no longer whole
bit by bit
heart and soul
given for it
run inside
lock the door
try to hide
in your sores
embrace the pain
like a faithful friend
kiss the stains
and start to bend
fingers around
your cold accomplice
tears compound
the shame from all this
darkness weighing
down your mind
tears straying
hands you bind
to the gun
inside your mouth
free to run
forever south
till you hear
the trigger pull
now its near
feel the lull
before it hits
peaceful now
a bloodied hand sits
shattered vows
pool blood red
in the dreams
beside your head
swiftly fall
onto the ground
in it all
you'll hear no sound
leave behind
the tears
and find
no fears
will hold you
slip away
in blackened hues
no more to stray
