You killed me but I still leave flowers on your grave every Sunday for you.

Piercing the sky while drowning the sea was her only desire,

Unforgiving hands shaped her pliable heart. Casting stones, the rippling waters reflect her broken self-image.

I remember you as you stood there, smiling as blood dripped from between your fingers.
