to the friend
I think with my heart and not my head.
My head feels impinged by a bullet.
i’m not hanging around for nothing.
Shoot my heart while you’re at it?
I breathe rain on hot cement
I shout out your name.
I watch you turn to face me
and smile as i walk away.
Wipe away those empty skies
and the blood from your lonesome face
Tonight i’ll make your sorrows fade
Tomorrow i’ll drain your tears, dry.
For you are the sparkle in my eye
and the slyness that deceives my soul.
The warmth in my smile and my chilling touch
and you’ve only caught a glimpse of me baby.
