Nov 2013
Devouring every little thing you see
As it drowns to the bottom of the sea
Of those oceanic eyes of yours
Home of the lost souls
Reflection of the sparkling stars
Shelter to the fragile spiritsΒ Β 
It's only now that I'm aware
That the cold breeze I used to feel
Is nothing but the trembling fear
Of being haunted by the thought of you, standing so near,
That I might be captured by the sharks of these betraying jewels
Suddenly tarnished with a million bruises
Slaughtering butterflies in my stomach
But my heart won't let me surrender
Although it seems so weak and tender
They didn't tell me love was so vain
So will my brain spare me of this strain
Or am I meant to live in pain?
