All I meet are snakes trying to climb the ladder.

Burning softly
Trying to hold on.
You always said I was the one.
Yet 9 years in and everything we built has come undone.

Just takes a slip and text knock it off the wall.

Burning softly
Trying not to fall
Someday it’s too much for my chest
And I just want to let go of it all.

One day I might take what’s on my back, my pocket and grab your tiny little hands.
Escape the impending gloom.
But maybe we are not meant to be doomed?

I’d like to see how the plot thickens
Maybe there’s a happy ending I can’t help but wonder?
So I hold myself back, climb onto the bed and
Spend another night with you.
See how it all plays out with you.

They confuse me.
Why bother putting up false pretences?

Making me think you care when you actually don’t?
You can leave me alone, thank you very much.
I rather live by myself than live in your lies.


The fox that wears a veil.
I must say you did have me fooled.

It’s never enough
The nectar that is you
And like a moth to a flame I flutter to you.

Oh, you sweet thing
How I adore you.
No matter how many sips
I still long for you.

It’s never enough
Even when I have made you mine
You need to show me how much you love me each and every time.

Hold me at night.
Hold me tight.

Will it be the oceans that washes us apart?

Oh shall you always carry my heart?

I want to touch you.
I want to be under your skin.
I want you to love me.
I want you to wrap yourself around me.

Cover me with your warmth.
Until the coldness in my heart is gone.
Until I no longer feel lonely.

Because it is a sad thing to be Alone.
And Your flesh gives me strength.
Reinforces the belief that it is real,

Your love for me that is.

Lilly,
my boy you hurt me.
but it must be
because I watered you with poison.
