Lycoris, darling

You know, Lycoris, my sweet...
A hundred pale ribbons of red
Spider Lily, a ghost I meet,
In a dawn that just bleeds in my head.

Six months... what a deadline to choose...
God, it’s not funny anymore!
Sour apple cider, a bitter bruise —
It’s poison, but it warms to the core.

Why didn't you trust in your heart?
Why bring on the polar night?
Two and a half hertz, falling apart...
And nothing can make it right!

You know, Lycoris, the choice —
Was the only thing left to save.
Sour apple cider to drown out the voice,
Drinking it down to the grave.

Two and a half hertz...
Maybe every damn night.
Until the heart just stops.
Pain. Cold. Shards. Goodnight.
