In the grave

Writer: Maria SequelMaria Sequel

If her lips taste sweet,

Why does her tongue taste sour?

Yet I become delicacy,

To this girl who devours,

This girl of irises mud and dust,

This girl who in pride wears rust,

A house of beacons,

A soul of horde demons,

She crafts words sourly,

With a mouth so lovely,

A golden chest of defects,

A breathtaking garden of insects,

She is all that I should not be,

Yet I never flee,

Graceful like a mare,

A precious nightmare,

She's a vine of rotten grapes,

Yet the rot is how wine is made,

Kraken under the sea,

But I wish never to escape,

I've nailed my coffin shut,

Six feet in the grave,

Her love may be fierce,

My love though, is brave.
