Tonight,
You brought tears of joy to my eyes.
The first man to do such a thing.
You have made me feel,
Made me feel,
Wanted,
Cared for,
For the first time in oh so long.

You don’t wish to toy with my heart,
You don’t wish to use me.
You want to love me,
To love the unloveable.

You are brave to have climbed the wall around my heart.
Slowly, but surely.
The champion.

Now you are king.
But now I wonder,
What shall you do with my city,
My core,
My heart?
Will you rule it to ruins with war and betrayal?
Or perhaps build it to memorable greatness,
Making it truly immortal?

This is your choice,
For all I can do is sit beside you,
A loyal subject,
And perhaps a foolish one at that.

You say that you have wanted me all along,
Who knows if that’s true.
But somewhere deep inside,
I somehow knew that you were something to me.
Perhaps my inside knew before I did.

Sometimes things just feel tight,
You try to laugh it off,
Something about our love doesn’t seem right,
Can’t you see the damage done,
The cracks in my sanity,
From when you run,
Away from the question a hand you see,
If you love me or her,
If you feel like  this is supposed to be,


Can’t give in,
Don’t want to let go,
But you break my heart  to pieces,
You’re messing with my flow,
I know that there is always tomorrow,
But perhaps that’s too soon


You don’t seem to comprehend this game,
As I won’t be the one played
Stuck here, looking  back on all the times I whispered your name,
I wish that you could hear,
Hear me everytime,
When my heart cries out,
When your doubts are on my mind,
So maybe if I write this,
And add a beat to this rhyme,
You will hear me loud and clear,
No more wasting time

Can;t give in,
Don’t want to let go,
But you break my heart  to pieces,
You’re messing with my flow
I know that there is always tomorrow,
But perhaps that’s too soon

I have the heart of a poet,
So easily shattered by your touch,
Be careful what you hold on to,
Because it just might be too much,
As it drips from your hand,
Piece by piece,
Never knowing where it will land,
Never having any peace.

Can’t give in,
Don’t want to let go,
But you break my heart  to pieces,
You’re messing with my flow
I know that there is always tomorrow,
But perhaps that’s too soon

Up and down,
I’m tired of this dance,
Walking the tight rope,
Driving me to madness,
Sinking my soul deep.

Manic,
Manic,
Manic,
I must be crazy.

Lock me up,
Lock up this monster,
Don’t look back,
As danger perhaps lurks behind,
Behind these eyes.

I would never hurt another living thing,
But my words are like poison,
flowing the veins,
of all the people who read my words.

Down,
Down,
Down,
I’m down,
Sinking to the depths below.

Prisoner to it,
impenetrable chains.

Behind Locked doors,
Olive skin,
Salty and smooth,
Impenetrable hands,
My every night,
Hearing me,
Hearing those four letters put together,
It opened the floodgates,
The soft, sumptuous core,
A bittersweet mixture of  fractured past and resplendent future.
Cloaked behind your mask of worldly expectation,
Behind the unsturdy wall of your desire to be champion,
The Hero,

Behind locked doors,
Blemishes were abolished,
Bodies were merely stepping stones,
Stepping stones to something higher.

Behind locked doors,
You hide.
