| What blighted words are mouthed to me Reeling in exaltated ecstasy With devil�s gleam and grin untamed Charming demeanor for which you are famed A demonic notion, my shivering skin Tortured soul, a fate so grim Feigning interest and waning attention Sends your thoughts in another direction Shadows crawling across the room The colors that flash, so full of doom Lips that quiver when dangerously close To the extreme... so grandiose Melodic temptation, a tainted mass Hoping this anxiety will quickly pass Skeletons in the closet claw their way out Voices in my head soundlessly shout Victim of circumstance, so out of reach Devouring my soul like a bloodsucking leech Drops fall sullenly upon the ground Threads of my sanity cannot be found With one giant breath jump into the flame A cross between elation and intense pain Virtuous facet shown only to thee Undying love... my only decree An eternity spent, time passes so slow With each dreaded moment my worry doth grow I sit and await to see what once was To come back full circle yet it never does Aching vision, unquenchable thirst Waiting for a miracle, anticipation�s the worst Swallowing it down... getting my fill You couldn�t be further... and yet closer still. |
