Chapter 34: scarlet

bloodredroses | poetryWords: 920

scarlet keeps me busy,

I hate that I wish that you'd miss me...

I know you hate when I cry,

but I - can't lie, so I

tell myself to count 'one, two, three'

look up at the ceiling

don't cry, don't feel -

think I'm a fool,

that's why you cut me in two.

one, two, three times

next time I promise I'll be alright

even if I can only lose,

I gotta get used

to scarlet red blood - down in the mudd,

right next to your shoes.

scarlet isn't easy,

I hate that I hate when you leave me...

one, two...

think there's nothing I can do -

I just wish you'd count on me,

so I could count on you.

restore my heart when it breaks -

pick up the pieces from the floor

one, two, three... four?

damn! - I can't believe,

I lost count of it once more.
