Lost In Echo.....

you cut off my thumbs, strung them on a necklace. split my tongue with a razor, and burned my shoes. now i go howling, in half darkened rooms. drawn by the scent and the symphony, of red pulsing blood! you arched your back, and the curtains trembled. the vase full of water, fell on your pillow. i awoke from a dream, my lips dry and aching. moaned without thinking, the willow bent, and sure! who are we? the forgotten, the silence lost in echo! the tire worn thin, the key left in the lock. the bottle near empty, on the edge of god's table... the drum in the closet, the nest blown by the wind!
