Love Letters Part 1 (To the Dead)

Your eyes

Don’t shine

They’re wide

Big blue oceans

And you throw me deep inside

Empty caverns

And you’re holding me so tight

Deep red rivers

And they’re streaming from your eyes

Your words

They sting

I hide

Soundless screams

And they’re piercing through the night,

Piercing through my lies

Bathed in shadow

Never again bathed in your soft smiles

Sheltered in wood

We’ll never notice that you’ve cried

Your laugh

Don’t sing

It’s died

Pretty baby

Won’t you please open up your eyes?
