Forbidden

I watch you from afar

As you gaze the other way

I try to cover up my scars

But all you want to do is play

Blossoming from my heart

Only to wilt under your stare

I try to become stronger

But I don’t think you even care

My heart is fragile

Why can’t you see

I try to harden it against you

But it is useless to me

Cast my heart into the fire

Shatter it against the stone

Your words cut into me like wire

As I walk the path alone

My feelings fester inside of me

Waiting to break free

I’m rotting from the inside

As I struggle to come clean

I wish that I could tell you

What it is I really feel

But my heart is an open wound

Waiting to be healed

My body sings to yours

As you play me like a violin

Your fingers strum along the strings

And it washes away the sin

Guilt and fear torment me

As I keep the secret hidden

You don’t believe my pleas

But I’ll only do as bidden

I feel like a marionette

And you are my master

Jerk me around by my heart

Make my blood pump faster

I am yours, this now I know

Though I try to break away

Even though you left me alone

I think about you every day

Blood runs down my body

Like a river of salvation

I call your name through darkness

But am ridden by frustration

You are my tormentor

The executioner who holds the blade

You have no idea the power you hold

That I will do whatever you have bade

You touch me oh so softly

And lightning crackles under my skin

I know I am not loved at all

But I’ll believe the lie that lies within

Whispered words seep through my body

To mingle with my blood

Words that haunt me endlessly

As I slowly come undone

I suffer my misery in silence

Underneath a façade of smiles

But every time you come near

My blood flows faster than the Nile

I wish I could forget you

As I run farther away

The colors melt together now

And all I see is gray

So maybe we will meet again

As my heart does surely wish

A secret hides inside my soul

Only to be revealed by a kiss

She's supposed to be a fairy :D

The Shadow Cast by the Heart

Shards of memories…

Shattered

The happy free moments…

Scattered

Across

The shadow cast by the heart

My thoughts riddled with

Ghosts of the past

I wish I could see my future cast

In a sunset’s light

Or stars of the night.

…I try to remember

I will myself to dream

Of times when

What is nothing now was everything to me

I sometimes wish that time would stop

The future melts with every tock

The sun sets

Yes

But the moon also rises

I love them both

The light and the dark

And the space in between

That no one has seen

The clouds rain down sand

The hourglass won’t break

Hurry and run

Before time is done

Shards of memories…
Shattered

The happy free moment…

Scattered

Across

The shadow cast by the heart
