As a newborn clings to its mother’s *****,
I cling to the tenderness of love—
Or the illusion of it you seem to give,
The warmth I think I feel.

Once, I loved so freely.
A love unguarded, unscarred,
But now I yearn for that girl—
The one who dared to embrace the petals
And endure the thorns.

Her love I miss,
Fragile yet fierce, fleeting yet full.
She was the love I knew,
The love I wish still bloomed.

But you feel like a distant echo,
A mirage beyond my grasp.
Will I find you again?
One day, I hope I do.

I'll hide, I'll hide
I'll crave, I'll crave
I'll yearn, I'll yearn
I'll let go, I'll let go

Just to come back
I hate thinking about it because it shows what I lack

Hold my rose and I'll hold yours
Let's make it a beautiful love story

Great and mighty you claimed to be
And in this, in you, I believed
A savior from the love I know
Be me and the love that I hold
I can finally show

But all a lie it turned to be
How couldn't I see that Hades
Is who you'll turn to be
A trick, a lie, a mirage
A trick, a foony, a facade

Well I've decided, in Zeus I shall no longer be in need
For comfort in me, I shall seek.
No longer will I scour for a god
For I will be my own strength, my own gaurd.

You have sailed me in the direction you found best fit
You rode my calms and concluded this was the voyage best fit
So changed directions and went left
Even in that I tried to make your ride cleft

That displeased you too, so aloof is how you set to be
You became frustrated with your confusions
Blamed it on me that you have went astray
You threw your rocks at me and screamed that I'm the one so blame
You don't want me but the fish I provide you still want to take

But my currents have had it
I'm sick of your weight that I need to carry
So now this is where I turn
You curse my calms so I'll bless you hurt
I'll make you feel the vigor

I'll throw the boulders you once threw
I'll take you down deep and show you
How cruel I can be
I'll overwhelm you with my being

No more will you experience the calmness I was gave
Feel me, feel the wrath you once gave
I am the Ocean, your source of gain
But quickly I can turn to your source of pain

You charted my waters as you saw best,
Rode my calms, claimed it was your test.
But you turned left, leaving me bereft,
Even then, I tried to make your journey cleft.

That displeased you too; aloof, you became,
Frustrated by confusions you couldn't name.
Blaming me for the course you chose to stray,
Yet still, you take my gifts while casting me away.

But my tides are done bearing your weight,
I’m sick of your burdens, your fickle state.
So now, I'll rise, no longer meek,
You cursed my calm; now feel what I speak.

I'll hurl the boulders you once threw,
Drag you down deep, and show you too
The cruel depths of my storming heart—
Overwhelm you, tear you down and apart.

No more will you know the peace I once gave,
Now feel the wrath of my vengeful wave.
I am the Ocean, your lifeline, your bane—
I can gift you life, or drown you in pain

I didn't mean to trigger the alarm but it seems that I have
I didn't mean to raise suspicions - I guess it's in who I am, my bad
But why won't you let yourself go, Why won't you let yourself indulge?
You have a thirst that is never quenched I can tell by that bulge

You are the colour in my grey
You are the unicorn lighting my way
You are a blessing in disguise
You are the reason for the bliss-ing in my eyes

Allow me to unravel the symphony in your mind, 
Pickpocket the treasures buried deep within it's mines.
Let me hear the whispers you veil in silence,
Entrust me with what another made you guard in defiance.

Let me to do to you, what you do to me
Let me be the spark igniting your mental chemistry
May your labyrinth twist with the force of my imagery,
Let the spells you've cast be your own
Let the torment you cause be shown
May the heavens return to you what you've done to me
