scarlet scarlet and the blue furious boy

[the amazing devil archive @TADTHEBOT]

please let her live just one more day
cos she is so much more than all her scars

[the amazing devil archive @TADTHEBOT]

and he holds her close just to keep the world at bay

[the amazing devil archive @TADTHEBOT]

and you rip my ribcage open
and devour what’s truly yours

[the amazing devil archive @TADTHEBOT]

farewell wanderlust, you’ve been oh oh so kind
you brought me through this darkness but you left me here behind

[the amazing devil archive @TADTHEBOT]

and he’ll say
oh how oh how unreasonable
how unreasonably in love I am with everything you do

[the amazing devil archive @TADTHEBOT]

and the door shuts behind me
I breathe in the air
and say yeah, well I’m sorry too

[the amazing devil archive @TADTHEBOT]

I wish I’d known these stones were something I could save

[the amazing devil archive @TADTHEBOT]

a storm is coming on

[the amazing devil archive @TADTHEBOT]

she kisses my eyelids
and I breathe

[the amazing devil archive @TADTHEBOT]

think back to paddling pools
(I need a drink or two)
and rainy days where they would

[the amazing devil archive @TADTHEBOT]

the wind and its shackles, the old fishers tackles
the sea and its waters, every unwanted daughter

[the amazing devil archive @TADTHEBOT]

but I held your hand
as you shook in the middle of the night
without waking you said
not yet not yet

[the amazing devil archive @TADTHEBOT]

cigar burns and scar skin
ripping bone and nail and gland

[the amazing devil archive @TADTHEBOT]

run from you, I’ll run until I begin to understand
what holy men really mean when they speak of sand and sons and seams and symphonies and sweat and sex and sin

[the amazing devil archive @TADTHEBOT]

and when the rain came down
I made a vow out to the gods
please let her live just one more day
