don’t let me leave don’t let me walk away because I want to stay my heart belongs to you my mouth will shut my mind will try to forget I feel they want me dead with you I have life to live I tie myself away I lock the door behind me I throw away the key only where you can find it I only trust your love I wonder if you will follow this dark cloud of sorrow to hold me tight again the demons will fight they won’t let go of my hand they believe me as ****** until your light blinds the room no one would face them no one cared to sacrifice showing me a paradise that grows behind the clouds now there’s your silhouette that I witness in my dreams that quiets my screams singing my spirit to rest when my eyes flutter open now there’s your smile inviting me to stay awhile reminding me my paradise is one I shall create

avoidance
strings turned to wire not even fire can break them apart her hands can’t break her words can’t shake the love we share I drift away asking for help when I pray the wires bring me back to you she kicks and screams she brings me to my knees I rise to feel your heart the air echos with temptation reminding me of expectations that she made for me I close my eyes I remember I only fight to keep you close my life yearns for peace to stay rooted like the trees keeping upright as she whispers my hand grabs yours so my soul is secure with you there’s no defeat I lay down my head thankful that I’m not dead like I once wished for because tomorrow will bring new views of angel wings you carry to fly high I never want to miss another moment of bliss just you, me, and the moon her name still haunts her touch always taunts but she’s not you and you are all I’ll ever need

wires
surrounded by green just you and me bird chirps echo down a path so narrow we stare at the dirt whispering to the earth inhaling the air that you and I share the sun sends rays melting away the grey the view I can see I’ve seen in my dreams the lilac aura you possess cleanses my stress I shine a summer green through my ripped jeans as the time passes and the water splashes my heart starts to warm my spirit is reborn grab onto my hand let’s claim this land soon you will find that whatever is mine your hands can take my wins and my mistakes in return I hold your heart creating an abstract art filled with love and serenity protecting it for infinity

a trail never ending
your sweet promises are fantasies I’ve searched galaxies to find your heart then I realized love is just art painted on a canvas played by an actress who lays on a mattress deep down an addict who plays with sadness your words are ink that blot the page his touch is a cage I’m trapped within being a slave is how my life ends buried in soil with a dozen roses wilting under the sun because the gun is too powerful for a little girl who lived to twirl seen as a pearl stolen by the keeper who made her clean made her to dream made her to fly free and the hand is too ***** to keep distance to ignore the existence of a child’s position

dull radiance
electricity runs through my veins remaining eager to take away your pain to break your chains sending sparks lighting up my brain shooting down with the rain it carves your name with flames onto my skin my hairs begin to stand thin across all four limbs my breath within the depths of my sins travels to cleanse your heart that craves to mend the color blue is an energy I never knew would lead me through the darkness walking beside a person like you with nothing to do but to adore the view the lightning proves I’m alive that the wires wrapped around my spine stay intertwined with your being finishing the design the storm defined as a miracle made to stop time and to shine as bright as the electricity that has helped me survive

static electricity
come back to your home you built inside my core inside awaits your throne upon a marble floor I have the fire place burning beside a glass of wine the walls are heard yearning asking you to come inside no one else has the key to unlock my internal door my body is never for free unless you enter wanting more I’ve kept your home clean with candles sparkling bright all I want is my beautiful queen to stay with me tonight

mansions
skinny jeans and a black tie she has her hand on my thigh tell me do you like me now? cologne masking the cigarette smell all the girls say I do it well tell me do you like me now? my footprints walk on new pavement this city has my soul awakened tell me do you like me now? you stare seeing new expressions but my heart remains loving my reflection tell me will you come around?
