- Bloody Moon
Emotional pain
The killing stains flowing through these veins
Ruby rain
Falls upon this desolate place
Bathing in its warmth
Embracing the pain
The daggers edge hanging across
Life held by threads of hopeless interactions
Blurred aspirations
Rampant desires
Selfless regrets
Haunted mistakes
Blissful ignorance
Narcissistic appeal
Loveless one-nighters
Warmth always others
Desperation everlasting
Loved then tossed
Left and lost
Found after death
Stain,
SoCal Native with an appetite for baking, cooking, and all things food.
