Her shot eyes screamed at her to go to sleep
But her demons convinced her not too
She hears that the only way to live is to fear death
In her case that means fear is a threat
Her thighs are swelling from forgotten memories of the past scarring
And her wrist itch everytime she looks at it and remembers what she had given up
She questions herself if it was worth the relief that she lost
And the demons convince her that the relief should not have been lost at all
I should have known better than to believe that I had a chance of him ever loving me

The only thing that he ever did was break me

And it was only at the sight of their hands intertwined in the loving embrace that I once dreamed

Of him and me

Now those memories of him smiling is all just heart breaking

And the sound of his voice is all but breathtaking

As these sobs of horror grow stronger in my lungs that grow smaller and smaller

Because of him and me

My heart was tore well before he came to me

Now its just shattered dust of a once beautiful dream

Of him and me

And it seems as if these images of fantasy that grew in my head all just seem so silly to me

Now that there is

And was

No chance of we

I had hoped you were the one to fix

To save

To build

Me into the women I fought so hard to be

That I believed I could reach

Now I know better then to get too high of an expectation of me

And my heart no longer feels as whole as it once did

And this is all because of the fantasy I drew

Of him and me
Ascend your forts and burn your castle,
Let's ride a boat and surrender to the hustle.
Let the waves revolt and swallow us to a forbidden city.

|Our bodies will become one|
|Our hearts are one|
|Our souls will forever be one|

Ascend your forts and burn your castle
Unfinished puzzles, missing pieces,
Broken promises and voiceless words
Our love will break and we'll suffer a heartache.
Our masks will fall and scars will form.

A runaway king with a flawless beauty,
You'll regret your choice but will choose me inevitably...
Every night,

chosen stars abandon their authorized positions
dancing tantalizingly through a universe;

splashing blues and violets
a fancifully dramatic canvas;

and finally explode
to unknown masses of reds;

showering another vulnerable heart...
Darkness avenges light and swallows it up.
A burning sun dies,
melting in a horizon where orange flames mold with stars.
Shadows awaken and roam a world.
A black cloud is studded with blazing stalks;
swaying and jumping throughout the dark.
An exquisite pearl rules a sky.

Slowly and on toes...*
Secrets are born,
masks of empty smiles and eyes fall
tearing flesh and bones;
and what we thought as mythical creatures are shed,
awakening the truest nature of souls.
