These demons inside me
Stretch this body; so worn
Wearing me like prideful skin
Comfort is never born
Damned a daughter of Darkness
It leads, whenever I stand
"Come with me" it whispers
As its slowly giving a hand
Ripples under skin
Tingling down my spine
Where is the light so needed?
Where is the divine?
It's slithering through my veins
Beating with every thought
"Rest your head" it whispers
"I'll give you everything you've sought"
Fighting within myself
Will it ever go?
Or will I be lost forever?
The Darkness loving to sow
I feel like this is the end
How can I spread this out?
Justifying my passage not clear
Still swallowed by its wrathful clout
An intimate bond sparks a romance
She whispers...
"Nothing is better than this!"
Deception walks in, adding sparks to the romance
She whispers...
"Nothing is better than this!"
so much I wish I could say but know I shouldn't utter a word.
silence is my sanctuary
haven't you heard? out of the whispers
a bleak void is what separates this voice from that choice to say
what would slice you up into oozing chunks of aching flesh
take your mind & contort the rest.
I am the bruise inside
the purple faded on pale rough skin.
when in doubt, i'll cut it out
all the pain within..
you may judge what I speak
but it'll come straight back to you.
your face is like a terrible sin
a memory that freezes me in between motion
crumpling my bones
suddenly everything gets so cold.
trust not what is seen
for it lies through gorgeous white teeth
& beautiful eyes, they undress you in vulgar ways
& ears that don't know what you mean.
& it feels as if theres a knife being pushed into your throat..
unable to escape.
only option left
is cry your heart out
in hopes of being saved
Whispers of Love
It’s hard to believe
Someone loves you this much
Only faces and words
And never a touch
I’d say, couldn’t be true
If you’d ask me before
But you opened my heart
And stepped thru the door
Whispers of Love
From a sweet Angel’s voice
Touching my soul
Without thought or a choice
Your passion is endless
I’ve been blessed from above
Trembling and breathless
I give you my love
