She hops out of bed
landing gracefully,
as her cat watches in awe.

Pillows
and covers
and sheets
and toys,
lay strewn around.

A just loved wetness between her legs,
she trembles at the first hit of her cigarette.

She is life
and it is death.

Together they dance,
a lovely silhouette.

And in the background
I cannot help,
but hold my breath.

Some days
I wake up a hero
others
I struggle with being the villain

Come to me my love,
come to me;
On starry nights,
with stars so bright,
they fill you full of life.

Come to me my love,
come to me;
With broken heart,
on days so hard,
and I will play my part.

Come to me my love,
come to me;
When the world spins
and you lose yourself,
and I will hold you up.

Surprise me,
keep me on my toes.

Love me,
kiss me like you’re starving.

Embrace me,
hold me like you’ll never leave.

Stay with me,
I hate to be alone...

Stay with me,
I hate to say goodbye.

Stay with me,
at least for tonight.

He loves her.

Look,

at the way
 he stares at her.

Eyes hungry
&
devouring.

How can you stand it?

Because she is free.


She has chosen,

to be with me.

I do not own her.

She is not mine 
to have.

She is free.

And if she leaves,

she leaves.

But I don’t think 
she will.


Because I,
have set her free.

I am mad…

Brilliantly so,

yet mad nonetheless.

Truth is…

Hardly anyone,

can understand that.

And sadly…

Even fewer,

can accept it.

You turned my mind against itself.
Filled it with confusion and self doubt.

You took my heart
and pumped it full of joy.
You baked it in the hottest of flames
until it began to crack.

And then you took your arrow
and
shattered it,
like a fragile vase
hit from a thousand paces.

You never could’ve missed
for you had the largest target in the world, my feelings for her.

You gave me the greatest thing
in the world
only to laugh
as you ripped it away.

This is why I stand here now.
With the millions of others
you have so harmed
standing behind me.

The heartbreak horde
&
we are at your door.


For love,

you and I,

are now at war.
