There is a way in which
insanity no longer stands
between two lovers.
The world could not
hold you back
when life meant loss.
It is you that I
can not live without.
Yet it seems
we can never be together,
as I am a living girl in black,
and you are my angel.
Heaven is red.
A violent red.
And missing you
is so familiar.
You painted your afterlife red
with the blood dripping
from your lifeless lips.
Maybe someday soon
I’ll be with you again.
It’s you I can’t be without.
The sight of you
in pain was torture.
There was only one way in which
insanity no longer stands
between gothic lovers.
You were sane.
You painted a world
with our failed love.
Heaven is red.
A violent red.

Hopefully someday soon I'll die too. In Heaven or Hell, we can be together again only in death

This is really sad, and I'm sorry about what happened to you. I can't imagine losing someone I loved that much. The words you used really portrayed the pain you must feel.
