i know who you are
i know what your worth
i know all you hide
and i know that you dont.
you deny your demons
you deny your bad
you deny yourself
you deny me love.
i see you though,
in a forest of lanterns
swung high from trees
with ivy and stone
in those foggy shots
you work so hard to find
and send
in a web
cause that is just you .
and that, love,
that,
that,
that!
is
love.
too.
yea.
it is,
it is.
yea,
it is.
it is.
but youll never see.
no, youll never see.
’cause you just cant look,
at the horror that is.
and you just cant look
at the mirror i hold.
and watch the burnt flesh
the dark eyes
you disdain,
the sad dreams you created
on that haunted warped stage…
and those lies,
that you tell,
those lies in your heart,
searing love
searing dreams
searing me
at my core..
cause all you are
is a bundle of
doubt;
petrified
terrified
horrified –
Without.
by the frightening strength
of your own
isolation…
in a cave of darkness
with the wrath of the weak
in nooks of lies
in a life yes! unlived;
not strong in self
not brave at all
not knowing who
to be.
and you cant breathe,
you
cant
~ breathe ~
youre not brave enough,
to breathe.
to be who you are.
to take what you want.
to shake all the trees
and leave.
-and so,
a beast
in painful ties
of muscled frenzy
comes out
at night,
when its dark
and its safe,
and you think that youre brave
cause no one can see
your shuddering form-
and you think that youre strong
cause no one holds on.
and you shrink
into nothing,
’cause nothing-
is safe.
and you lay there punching
in extreme defense
of the very thing
that makes you
you.
of the very thing,
that i know-
makes you,
-everything.
Your words physically impact one’s heart
