She Never hurt herself like tonight

She never hurt herself like tonight
it was the most beautiful night you’d ever seen
the coal sky shown and the streets crowded with the horrors and beauty of the night
she sat smoothing her perfect pink carpet
it was so paralell to her life
her eyes were to many colors and he noticed them once
they were blue with an endless sorrow
green with the light of the full moon
he wished once that he could hide in them
but she never knew
never knew he excisted and he never knew that she had taken her last breathe
against the starry night
the blade slid across her already mutilated flesh and the scent of wet blood stained
the no longer perfect pink carpet
the night took it’s course as if she’d never left
the drug dealers, one’s loved,ones who never felt the kiss of love against their soft
skin,those who flew from forever and the sky was imbedded with diamonds and the
faces of those long gone
it was like a rebirth,so terrible,so magnificent she whispered and her last tear rolled
down her sallow flesh still warm to the touch
he still dreamed of her like he did every night only this time those words could
never reach her ears as they never would
she never hurt herself like tonight
