Believe in better - that's what she said
to the voices that quarrelled in her head
though she knew things may never change
she refused to let go - feeling deranged
pain began to feel like pleasure
a sense of eroticism - newfound treasure
a feeling bound just to her
with silver handcuffs covered in fur
masked with a golden eye patch
a body with stories in every scratch
fevered madness loomed over
she could never get enough of her lover

Close your eyes
you will see
all that cannot be seen
opened eyed
as once your eyes are shut
you see from within your soul
clearer messages relayed
true meanings unfold

there she stood mirrored in her reflection
a flame dancing on water

gold burns in fire yet it shines
a constant reminder of our loves time
heated arguments that scorched our soul
polishing it vigorously to glitter like gold
of all the words that were said
there is this three we never will regret
I LOVE YOU, I ALWAYS WILL
in this moment time stood still
we gazed at each other
a galaxy of stars
no room for distractions
just the magnetism of our hearts

And there I was
climbing my ladder of insecurities
finding what makes me tick
like a bomb bound by time
Trying to create something
that is mine
Consoling myself that all will be fine

My minds a mess
I can't contest
Confined by the prison in my head
My thoughts are fed
I'm no longer able to get out
Even if bang on the bars and shout
There's no warden
Coz my heart has hardened
And I'm now left to my own vices

He stared at her with predatory intent
A stare that made him feel content
A Crooked smile across his face
In her heart he knew his place
Breathing erratically going red in her face
He gave her a feeling no one could replace
And even though she still felt shy
It was only with him that she could fly
