I love pretty little things. And she was a beauty. Her smile could light my darkness and Her love drove my demons away. I promised her the world even though I had none of it to give. I took and took from her and in return I gave her all the love I had which wasn’t enough. Her love was devoured by my appetite and my demons began to returned. Eventually her smile grew dim. In time the darkness returned and she no longer had the strength to stay. I had no strength to keep her. Now I am haunted by her memory and alone. My demons keep me company as they gleefully dance with my misery. I keep watch of her from afar. She has met another and began to blossom as her beauty and smile has returned. She is happy now. As I watch her it torments me now as she is a beautiful star dazzling in the sky so close yet so far from my reach. I love pretty little things……

Pretty Little Things
I love pretty little things. And she was a beauty. Her smile could light my darkness and Her love drove my demons away. I promised her the world even though I had none of it to give.

My demons keep me company as they gleefully dance with my misery. I keep watch of her from afar. She has met another and began to blossom as her beauty and smile has returned. She is happy now. As I watch her it torments me now as she is a beautiful star dazzling in the sky so close yet so far from my reach. I love pretty little things……
