May 2010
The monster inside me is ever alive
Chancing to come out and play
Ever prepared to play with sin
Ever prepared to win

Cages and screams
Hopes and dreams of better days
Music brings out my emotions
In fits of thought I am never safe

Eyes blurred with its haze
No longer myself
The girl you see now something darker
Perfectly tempting and dangerous

Only visible in the mischievous glint of the eye
The smirk of a killer becoming too effortless
Begging for someone to save me
Screaming to have control

It loathes your effect on me
You spark one dead flames
Making me want to change
Feeling its presence less around you

It hates that you can't see it within me
Your habit to only see the good
Your inability to catch me on a bad day
Manipulate diffused at your feet

I crave to be near you
Yearn for the wide eyed way I feel
The way the sun set high
The way the shadows grow short

Satisfied with what I already have
Any vicinity will satisfy my heart
Feeling this way is the worth
Showing my demons defeat
