The Perfect Crime
Bring me down from this high
Find me peace to sleep tonight
Stop my head and all its rushing
In and out- not worth discussing
Mute the lights and dim the sound
God help me for the coming down
Throat is screaming, stomach numb
I'm breaking down just to become
Sharp colors behind heavy eyes:
Perfection by the perfect crime

The Pull
I feel the undertow
I feel the pull
It's sweeping up in currents
And grasping circles
And pulling me under again
Gasp for air, and my lungs still feel nothing
Being taken by the pull
So far down
Deep in an aqua blue noose
Fighting against the current,
But hell what's the use?
Being taken by the pull
In an aqua blue noose
No point in draining what you can't make full
No point in fighting the pull

This Bitter Champagne
Sweetest lie Ive ever heard-
A blank shadow of the deepest word.
Turned from champagne to vinegar on your tongue-
Spilling from a mouth thats far too young.
Too naοve to make any sense-
From depth and taste to ignorance.
Swallow now what you have said,
And sleep from its poison in your river of tears shed.

'Til the Death
I opened up my eyes today knowing it would be
The last time that I saw you; the last time you spoke to me
I opened up my mouth hoping for a prayer
To do the right thing this time; to show you what was there.
I shut my eyes tight tonight left only with a tear
A tear of yesterday soon to be a tear of yesteryear.
I shut my mouth tight tonight but upon my one last breath
I whispered like a lullaby, 'I'll love you 'til the death.'
Jessy Liz
