avoidance
don’t let me leave
don’t let me walk away
because I want to stay
my heart belongs to you
my mouth will shut
my mind will try to forget
I feel they want me dead
with you I have life to live
I tie myself away
I lock the door behind me
I throw away the key
only where you can find it
I only trust your love
I wonder if you will follow
this dark cloud of sorrow
to hold me tight again
the demons will fight
they won’t let go of my hand
they believe me as ******
until your light blinds the room
no one would face them
no one cared to sacrifice
showing me a paradise
that grows behind the clouds
now there’s your silhouette
that I witness in my dreams
that quiets my screams
singing my spirit to rest
when my eyes flutter open
now there’s your smile
inviting me to stay awhile
reminding me my paradise
is one I shall create
