I believe.
There is a time,
when both sides are getting what they want from their union.
This is love.
Nothing more.
Then one will find something they don't want to share.
The balance will shift.
And love will be shown a fake.
Love is lust and flattery.
It is lies covered for a time and purpose.
So I have been shown.
So I will believe.
when both sides are getting what they want from their union.
This is love.
Nothing more.
Then one will find something they don't want to share.
The balance will shift.
And love will be shown a fake.
Love is lust and flattery.
It is lies covered for a time and purpose.
So I have been shown.
So I will believe.

The other side.
I'm living in the world as far as I can tell wasn't made me.
Walking down a darkened street.
Pushing hard with broken feet this destiny.
For reasons I don't understand I'm different you.
The way I stand it seems is just a little wrong.
My eyes too dark.
My face too worn.
I feel these streets will cut my feet.
Along this road I'll get no sleep.
So walking on my broken pride, I take my leave.
I push my stride to another world.
Walking down a darkened street.
Pushing hard with broken feet this destiny.
For reasons I don't understand I'm different you.
The way I stand it seems is just a little wrong.
My eyes too dark.
My face too worn.
I feel these streets will cut my feet.
Along this road I'll get no sleep.
So walking on my broken pride, I take my leave.
I push my stride to another world.

Copper
"This is the cut for the blood you have taken" her voice flowed into my head.
I would never have been here had I just resisted the summons from her to the bed.
With a twist and a smile I'd not seen in a while. She pushed in the blade with a sigh.
She leaned in to me closely, her lips to my ear. In her sweetest voice she told me why.
"I'm feeling the need to cut you"she sighed. "A heart felt desire to see that you've died.
The pound of flesh you took is the tonne that I'm taking.
All the drops of blood that you've spilt have led us to this and...

Locked from love..
I know I want you near me but I can't allow you here.
I refuse to be pulled apart
Your will may be true but I won't have you anywhere near my heart
So I shut the door
You turn the handle on one side I hold it closed on the other
It's all I can do to keep you away I know I'm not safe with another
It sounds like your talking to me from so very far away
One thing that I know is it's safer for me that way
It's not that I don't need you because I so know that I do
But if you want to be near me this is all I have for you
Outside its light...
I refuse to be pulled apart

It sounds like your talking to me from so very far away
One thing that I know is it's safer for me that way
It's not that I don't need you because I so know that I do

Lonely cracks..
And as I sit smiling I can feel loneliness pass through me in waves. Leaving me separated from my self. I am in at least two places. I'm in half light once again so who can really tell. As always, darkness blurs the edges. It leaves so much more middle ground. More room for interpretation of what is and isn't. And personal alterations to be made unseen. Although the shadows reveal nothing clearly, the memory left is surreal. A clarity so amplified that my own can not be separated from all other clarity. No edges. No gravities. Filling my vision. But outside of my grasp. A perfect nothing. A...
