15 till.
The lights flash, all frenzying for a chance to blind the windows to my soul
Their voices call to me with falsehoods characteristic of a mother's caress
Nameless fingers graze my arms and legs, leaving traces I can feel forever after
I idly wonder if I will ever find the power to push through this disaster
10 till.
I slowly grow to realize that I enjoy this
I suddenly feel a kind of high from their unfailing attention
It's strange and foreign, yet I feel as though I've always known
My being must be changing itself it adapt, to tune
7 till.
They hang on my every word like parasites on God
They can't let me go because they are nothing without me
They're just living in a world I've furnished, clinging to my excellence
It's a wonder I don't throw them out into a cold, unacknowledged existence
5 till.
I've become hooked.
I need this now.
I can't let it slip out of my hands.
Time is too quickly escaping my demands.
3 till.
They cling to me and I cling back
We need each other to survive, it's the only way
They know that, they must
Without each other we would both be dust
1 till.
It's almost gone, a full moon just beginning to wane
I would do anything to keep it now, but there is nothing
I don't know how to live without it anymore
I don't know if I will live evermore
2 past.
Fled into the shadows of the night
I'm bleeding on a sidewalk, all alone
A gaping whole left in spite
Did my heart not once beat in that site?

Sad but true for many. Arrogance is a deadly enemy. |
