Romanticism Done Wrong

365 Days of Creativity

day fourty two

The only bullet in a barrel of six,
the way his eyes see through my tricks.

The match that lights a body ablaze,
the woman that walks into the haze.

A lone wolf that stalks his pitiful prey,
The weapons used to finish and slay.

Skin tattooed with art as ink,
the mind that teeters upon the brink.

A pale horse that rides in times of dusk,
The deep scents of angels covered in musk.

A song that bares the soul for taste,
the blood that’s spilled in fractured haste.

The tree with hands of skeletons,
the water through the desert runs.

These things I find as beautiful,
as painted lips on porcelain skull.

Clever words are my disguise,
trust not who romanticize.
