Blood Romance

Your blood was bursting through your veins like raging rivers,
like rivers bursting through narrow embankments your blood sang,
With hate rising like the heat of the sun,
That burned what was left of this suspicious love.

I have a bullet sitting tight in this barrel.
It waits patiently for me.
Just like you are waiting there in your tomb.
I bet your smiling wherever you are.
You hate me
I always knew.
But darling I'm obsessed with you!

But you knew that didn't you.
You couldn't handle the pressure!
You just left me behind, for me to clean up your mess.
And a little girl singing softly to herself as she swings.

Where's mummy? When's she coming home?
What the fuck am I meant to tell her?
How could you give up on us?
Our daughter, your lover?

The ice ran in your veins Just like it did your mothers!
She abandoned you but why so hereditary?
I look through our daughters tear stained brown eyes,
only to see the hurt in which you've created.
Burn in hell you stupid slut!
