Candlelight

I sit alone on unmade bed,
Curtains flung casually aside.
The flame moves, leaping, wild,
alive.
Flickers and threatens to leave.
The shadows on my four walls draw in,
They do not fear my meagre light on the windowsill.
Seven crows fly among the rafters,
sent high, bourne upon the small glow.
The murder circle, the first watching
over me
keeps me safe from safety.
I hold out my hand to hold,
bring it through the smoke
to settle in the flame
hoping just to feel.
I sit alone on unmade bed,
I sit alone and try not to love you.
I sit alone.

I Will Always love You

'It will all be okay.'
Is that what you really want to hear?
Because if it is
You won't hear it from me.
If one embrace will ease the pain
Then I would never touch you again.
If it all brings you to tears
Then I pray to whatever god would hear me
That it lasts for infinite eternities.
If my words mean anything to you
I take them back
Every single one
For never a single meaning crossed your lips.
Hollow words from the Hollow heart of a Hollow shell.
You are as nothing to me now as i was as nothing to you then.
I know it will never die but
I know it will dim every day
'Til I can bury it alive
To never mourn at its graveside.
I will aways love you.

Naughty Little Secret

Tell you a secret,
tell you a story,
tell you the truth
you like it when I lie.

Look over my shoulder and see
their whispers match my own
Their sharp eyes rake my back
as they joke and play and scream
the truth no one wants to hear
I offend the senses unless I live their lie.

So throw a tantrum, make a fuss,
say I 'm wrong and play the game
Say I'm dirty and feel no shame
Say what you want and
kick me when I'm down

It's no secret that it's okay
not a person anyway

but truth be told,
you like me when I lie.
