Condensation drawing,
On mirror, one morning,
What I saw, blew mind
Made me turn, look behind

There stood, with a knife
At the throat, of wife
Her screams, all could hear
My heart, burst with fear

With panic, in my chest
Took swing, for the best
caught hard, in the face
Knife dropped, grasp, race

Me first, knife, mess
Him blood, life less
Wife safe, me shocked
Bathroom exit, door locked

I wish we could live your worst nightmare
we could walk through hell together
I wish our adventures yielded armor
and you'd love every part down to the rivets
I wish i knew you would put up a fight
instead of waking up

In your eyes, I see the man i could become
But my reflection declines to inspection
In your voice i hear my future partner in crime
but it echos one too many times
I'm ready for rain to pour down on you
I'm ready to tell you I'm the source of it
but most of all,
I'm ready for your love

"Karen, her name's Karen!"*
whispered one to the other,
grinning...
Those married men...
That new intern...


So...
what about loyalty?
what about pride?
what about honour?
what about when you said you'll only have your eyes on me?
what about when you say "you're my one and only"?
gone?
plain old lies?
"They remain...
Just in the name of having fun...
Just appreciating..."
Just asking...

So...
--what about feelings?
what about respect?
what about honesty?
what about "no more lies"?
what about trust?
companion?
"Nothing serious...
my heart still belongs to you,
you're the only one I'll come home to"...
But about loyalty?
Honour? Mine?
Respect?
What about... the rest?...
Just asking...
in the name of FUN...

In the old grand Cathedral
Down by the City Hall
Across the buzzing lively street
The place where we'd meet

Birds chirping signifying the new day...
My new dawn with you
Until the break of dawn...

Then balloons, --big white balloons across the sky...
A magnificent view
In the shimmering glistening sun,
the cooling breezy wind,
The crisp autumn air...
Laughters and cheer,
--those wedding bells!
Do you hear those beautiful tower bells?...
My billowing gown...
And doves, --doves flapping their wings...! Up and beyond,
gazing to the future...

...

I wish we're getting married today...

...

But we're not,...
You left me months ago...
and now my mind draws blank,
for another one to fill,
an empty space where your arm used to link mine,
as how we should've walk...
... the aisle, ...
under the stares of our beloved...

And you're not coming back, I know...
Stilll I wish, I wish, that were getting married today...

It's not the promise you break,
but it's my heart and soul you do break...

The layer that closed again
I was open then I fell into a trap
I was trapped by someone
I thought loyalty was all he knew but loyalty wasn’t nothing he knew
So I was exposed and my shell shattered so as I struggle to put the shell together
He’s lost without me because I was his angel I gave him the soul he had
But he left
