Never Smile - Marietta

he never smiles

he never smiles

his eyes are dead

truly and simply dead

he never smiles

he never opens his mouth

he never opens his mouth

except to inspire the smoke

except to expire the smoke

let me down gently

on his blank body

let me down gently

on this blank beauty

the night lies by his side

the night breathes by his side

it’s waiting for him all day

it’s waiting for him all day

the night is on his side

he leaves no traces in the room

he leaves no traces in the air

only scars on my skin

only scars on my skin

let me down gently

on his blank body

let me down gently

on this blank beauty
