safe from all the hurt and pain
this is the story of my soul locked away

trapped in a padded room
hunched over in a corner

white floor gray walls
no windows or doors
fake air to breath

my soul doesn't know how she got here
only that shes here

somewhere lost, is my subconscious
lost in the dark cracks and corners of the room
she put her here
then made herself disappear

fear strikes my soul
it came from nowhere
but a door appears
the sound of heavy footsteps soon follow

my soul knows those steps
knows who's feet they are
fear tempts her
traps her
and now she's scared

a loud bang gets her moving
someone is trying to open the door

within fear she finds courage
courage to hold the door close

fear seeks strength
strength to keep it shut

someone is trying to spoil her room
her safe room

a lovely pink smoke slides under the doorway
curiosity thinks it might smell nice
wisdom knows other wise

in an instant my soul knows
its her special perfume

her tattle tale sign
that my soul needs to keep away
and guard the door
..with all her might.

Filled to the brim
separated like oil and water
my  love is hidden in a tiny box in the depths of my heart

hate over flows
there's enough t0 drown in
like tiny crinkled hands wrapping around your neck
my anger will be your death  

my strongest walls can't keep away your prying eyes
you see right through me
past all the hate
all you see is love that's hidden away

open your eyes
I'm begging you to see the real me
please before it's to late
come face to face with all my anger & hate
look and see

let me be in peace
forever alone
see me for the monster that I am..

Come dance with me
accompany me by the sea
let the waves flow upon the shore
feel the chilly water run over your feet

see that sand crab there?
it sees you.

Perhaps it knows your secrets too.

But it doesn't matter
he wont tell
but I will
if you wont come dance with me

the night is young
the moon is bursting with light
every shimmering star is out as if to say hi


in my solitary haven is where I reside
you know I can't take depart

so please my dearest love, wont you dance with me?

Abused and used,
old, numb, broken and bruised
like a torn and worn out rag doll

you toss me aside like I had button eyes
leave me to stitch my wounds
I heal in the dark
a rag doll has no heart
I'm stuffed with hate and despair

let go of my wrist,
it's about to tear

play along little one
lets dance and eat

your words mean nothing
empty bottles tossed out to sea
but never to be seen

hidden from eyes,
a new wound forms
another stitch to be made

if button eyes could cry

he whispers in my ear
"Smile."

Little kids have a way of driving you insane
unlimited energy in tiny legs
everything is a game

Only when I close my eyes am I free

free to let my fingers float over the keys

the keys, the keys

the magical piano keys

each note making an imprint in my mind

an imprint of you

dancing with you slowly in the moonlight

an audience of stars watching our every move

hearing your heart beat next to mine

I'm playing for you honey

each melody

each note drifting in the air

I'm coming alive

finally I'm free...

The bright sun can shine all day
but never shine on the darkness that lurks inside.

In a way it is my light

my dark sunlight

my comfort

my safety blanket if you will

I wrap it around me tight

no matter what it's always in arms reach

welcoming me with cold comforting arms

soothing my every wound

cooing in my ear

letting me know no matter what
it will always be there.
