Secret
furies Mar 2014
There's a secret within me
Writhing to be free
Sometimes it slips out
In wisps of whispers
and I clamber to pull it back
To retrieve the slivers before
Someone realizes what the
Whispers entail

There's a secret within me
Its too much to hold
But its too much to let out
So I let it gnaw at my insides
Pierce my heart
And drain me of what
Might've been a soul.

There was a secret within me
I really shouldn't have kept it
There was a secret within me
But now it's gone

So am I.

Fate
furies Mar 2014
I sit
Listening to the
accusations.
Letting it all wash over me

"Why couldn't you be perfect?"
"Why can't you turn back time?"
"Why did you have to ruin everything?"
"Why didn't you think everything was fine?"

I seethe
Listening to the
advice.
Letting it all sink in

"Don't do it again."
"Just listen to me."
"Repent for your sins."
"Obedience is key."

Nothing is clear
Was I wrong?
Was I right?
I've got my life to fear

Everyone thinks they're right
Everyone thinks I'm wrong
Everyone's got an opinion
But nobody's got an answer

I sit
and
I seethe

If only I could
drop everything
and walk away

I'd never look back.
Not once.

But I can't
Because
I'm weak
and so
I sit
and
I seethe

Repent?
Obey?
Give in to the wise
& win the ultimate prize.

The problem is
I don't think
I want the prize

I never did.

Falling

With No End In Sight

But Suddenly

You're There
10w
furies Mar 2014
It's okay to fall
Even when most tell you to stand tall
You don't need to answer their call
What's the point?-You'll only start a brawl
So trust me, don't enter the mess hall
Until you're ready to deal with it all

My Kingdom
furies Mar 2014
I'm ****** to Hell,
As I'm sure you've heard.
It's all over town,
Spreading across the world.

The news of my damnation
May have come as a shock,
But at second glance
This becomes the talk:

"I'd known it all along"
"She'd always had that look"
"I doubt she'd ever even held a-"
"God-**** Prayer Book!"

Now let me tell you a secret,
The reason for this all.
I fell in love with freedom
(Even the notion's known to appall!)

Welcome to My Kingdom
In the cavern beneath these plains
If you've got a bit of wisdom
or even the slightest hint of brains
You surely must know
Why My Kingdom is truly the place to go
(Join me for a strip show?)

People say
That Heavens the place to be
But to eternally need to pray
Is something I'd rather like to flee.

Though there is a bit of pain
I can do anything I please.
I really can't complain
If Satan's a bit of a tease.

So Join Me
Come one, come all
Because whether you choose to or not
My Kingdom will be
Where you ultimately
Fall.
I mean no disrespect to Heaven nor anyone's beliefs on the matter.

Dance with Me
furies Mar 2014
Let's dance to the ends of the wold.
Let's dance to the golden gates of heaven.
However,
Be warned-
For that is where I leave you

Nothing
furies Mar 2014
His eyes
Stared deep into mine
Held my gaze
Daring me to look away

I didn't
I should've

His hands
Slipped into mine
Held me close
Pulled me closer
Tightly
Daring me to pull away

I didn't
I should've

Perfect
furies Feb 2014
It wasn't easy.
To deceive everyone around her
To convince everyone she was perfect.

But she did.

Then
Everything fell apart
The truth came out
The careful web she'd sewn
Torn right down the middle.

It uncovered
A lousy
Mediocre
Boring
Tasteless
Talent-less
Liar

— The End —
