Silencer

Here I stand with the gun in my hand

Waiting for the water to calm

The moonlight can barely paint

An aquarelle of coral blue and red

Like the colours

Of your lover's

Pretty eyes and hair

Life is just a story to tell

Yours had an unfortunate end

Denial, denial

Yet no one heard you but the stars

Through the rain

Of the sprinklers

A bullet pierced your heart

Your cries and your curses

Could not protrude

From the bottom of a

Suburban swimming pool
