New Suicide

Many lives have passed by.

This be my lovely vice,

A memory brighter than Versailles.

I’ll be Eros sacrifice,

Galileo's eyes, you are addictive.

Praying to what can not be seen,

Gave me roses filled with brucine.

Your words become constrictive,

Discovering the Parthenon from here.

Soaring in the skies, new age Icarus,

Forgiving all of the ignorance.

Life’s lies appearing so clear,

The sky a hollow bed of shame.

Entombed in this colorless mind,

Eternity to lay aside my blame.

Sharp eulogies stab, eyes become blind.

A box to snuff and bury my rage.

In spite of me the "cooed" and "awed"

Forever a beauty, no more will I age.

Life has judgement, so shall God.
