You leeched me away from myself When I’d just walked away from a blade. The evidence was disappearing… Now it’s back with a vengeance. Half sight is half understanding. I sat on your floor and ate your promises. Recognised the soul tie From my thousandth year of research. I was out for blood… Yours was running from a tap. Lapping it up, it fuelled me with melody Till I couldn’t breathe Couldn’t see Couldn’t speak Choked out but’s Having believed your presence was love.
