I took my bones.
Burying them deep within the dark corners of your subconscious.

When you sleep, I will awaken.
Awaken inside of you, desperation.

You will try and leave the nightmare,
But you can't escape this prison.

For in your mind, my bones have made an incision.

An incision that cuts deep within your core. I have entangled myself in the memories you have stored.

Yet, I will be nowhere in sight. For in you, I have turned out all of the lights.

How did You get in here?* I hear your thoughts inquire. It's called by mere desire.

I snuck right past the entrance.

*Maybe next time, you will think twice before you ask a demon to dance.

I believed.
I was deceived.
I cared.
It was not shared.
I fell.
You could tell.
To you, I was drawn.
You led me on.
I said I love you.
You lied and said you did too.
Then I said Don't leave me
You said We'll see
I should have walked away.
Made you ask me to stay.
But now I'm left alone.
Parts of me, left in your soul.
My heart aches beneath these bones.
But without me,
*You feel whole.

You*


It's not something I held on to, but definitely something I never let go.

I gave you everything I had, you put my every inhibition to rest,

Yet the demon inside of you, no longer stayed as a guest.

You welcomed it inside and let it overcome you.

I foolishly handed my soul over. So inside of me, its power also grew.

We were swallowed in the lies. His words beckoned us, so hopeful and promising.

We were blinded by them and now it's left us confused, struggling.

And now you're calling me, telling me you're ready to give up, that all you want is to let go.

But if you let go, it will take me with it.  
We are tied down. We have been from the start.

All I wanted was for us to be a masterpiece, a breathtaking work of art.

We are falling, we are destroyed.


The demon's left now, but in us there will always be void.

"I'm ready to be free," I whispered with all the strength left in me.

He agreed, together we jumped, finally escaping life's grip.

Looking back, content, knowing we were everything we ever could be,
We closed our eyes and enjoyed life's one, last, final trip.

Fog hangs above in the sky.


Yet, I know not how you managed to let it cloud your heart.
