Sometimes you lose yourself,
To someone,
Empty out,
And it's all for nothing.

That person gets hold of the strings,
Becomes the oblivious ventriloquist,
Playing with you ignorantly,
And you can't escape it.

Now this person is smart,
But doesn't know it,
Plays with your heart,
Has impeccable talent,
Does all this effortlessly,
But you just can't break free.

You let this person in,
And get locked in,
Makes you seem naive,
But then again,
You must be,
You're the one that opened the door.

And I'll spam this if I must,
To save all your hearts,
It's all an illusion,
You'll be stolen from,
Your light will be taken,
Leaving one fatal thing,
*...
It's all false hope, isn't it?

When you love someone,
Any moment their away,
Feels like hell,

Especially when you don't know,
If that person is okay.

I see things that nobody else sees,*
It's scary,
Sometimes.
I see deep into the non-existent and emptiness that is in everyone and everything.
I sometimes see shadows, why wouldn't they go away.

It's like everything I've ever know,
Is just an assumption.
How does everything burst out so quickly,
But leave me feeling,
Even more empty.

I read your poems,
Repeatedly,
To recreate the butterflies,
Hoping I was on your mind,
As you wrote them.
I'm going crazy.

I'm typically down,
But when you're gone,
I'm deep under,
Sitting and waiting,
For you,
*My sweet escape.
I don't even know why you have such a hold on me.

You don't even have to love me,
Just please,
Stop keeping me waiting.
Couldn't find any other words.
