Halo

I can hear my makeup running
See the forest through my tears
Feel the gentle caress of the wind
Taste the bodies falling soundlessly through the snow

I can feel the leaves crunching under our hooves
See the world tilting off the needle we're bleeding
Taste the sand in my mouth on my dead tongue
Smell the sweets as you offer them your eyes aglow

And you can see me split my arms akimbo
Taste my searing flesh as you're eating
See my wisdom like a pristine halo
Now that it's too late for you to dredge me up again.
