I could destroy you, you know
I know how to make someone feel like they own me
or like they're just a face I'm supposed to have known
in the backdrop of one of my dreams- I know how to leave
someone gasping for air, to slowly **** out a vacuum until
they are desperate, until an ounce of me would give them life
I know what I could do to make you scream, but I won't, no
because these arts are too dark and too vile, and people don't deserve that
I can wrap you around my little finger but I won't
because a little finger is no place for an immortal soul- I simply
am, and I let yes mean yes and no mean no,
because my mother taught me how much it hurts when yes means
sure, but I wish you were your sister, and no means if only
you were brave enough to handle it, and so
I will not be like my mother, I will be simple, I will be beautiful
I will make you feel like the queen of the world and the only one for me
because I can, and because that's the nicest thing to do with what I have,
but darling, I never want you to underestimate my power.
