celestial reject

you're poison inside me
you're blood on my moon
you're the 45 left
     on the dashboard
  warped
  no good
 don't you know me
   for who i am
you should see
the tired in my eyes
you should taste
the ash in my kiss
   Your Sleeping Beauty 
    is hurting awake
       Your Gretel
     needs more than bread crumbs
but you're too dumb
 to comprehend
    the hell of who
 I've become
   having been barred
from Your Heaven
