Lele Apr 2021
trapped in the darkness of the moon
blinded by the blanket of stars
wishing to finally be seen
by the sun and not trapped behind these bars

hoping one day he’ll notice my beauty
and free me from these shackles of sorrow
come stay by my side
for a million and one tomorrows

as I cast a glow on the night sky
I’m the one they’ve come to admire
my eyes filled with fireflies
now that I’m the fire of his desire

felt like I’ve been drowning all my life
and I’m finally coming up for fresh air
two opposite souls embracing one another
his love gentle and fair
Lele Apr 2021
protective arms guiding me to the world of comfort
my soul finally waking up from a decade of slumber
no more feeling lost in time
at least not when you're around

you set my soul on fire
scorching enough to burn me with every touch
leaving your hands forever imprinted in my mind
there’s nothing else in the world I desire
not when you’re all I admire

surrounded in your flames
leaving me breathless and in pain
this burning sensation in my veins
embracing me in a newfound feeling of warmth
but I can’t complain

it's getting hard to escape my mind
these feelings slowly driving me insane
solely because your love was one of a kind
but to you, this was all a game

your warmth abandoning me as quick as it came
leaving my body cold and lifeless
slipping out of your grasp
you let me fall back into my pit of darkness

once again feeling heartless
you left me helplessly reaching for your hand
you don’t see me but I understand
your wish is my command

I never stopped reaching
waiting for you to come down again
but here’s to another day
the endless cycle of pain

— The End —
