Why do you waste your energy?
You present that radiant smile.
hug me like
our touch will stop,
the desperate pleas of those in need.
Why?
I need for you to see the truth
think of me like a robber
entering your holy presence
I'm faking,
rounding up your feelings
stowing them away,
and you still think
I'm benefiting
I'm not
and in the dead of night
dressed all in black
the brightest thing about me
is the smirk
escaping my lips
I take your feelings and sell them
use the pleasure I gain as an escape
from the numbness
tearing my soul to shreds
