Walking On Broken Glass

Look at how she shines for You. Because of You. The thought of You.

Sang hyms to seem like something other than a heathen because really I was searching for redemption. Painted happily ever after before the fairytale was even at a stage of inception. Carved God out of your words before i knew your intention. The devil I know hidden behind a stranger's smile, you're the wolf in Little Red's reinvention. Wanted to occupy your whole, not a portion. Wanted to sooth your aching soul, handle your broken pieces with caution The idea of you, I and we is enough to give even the barren a second chance at life Enough to cast your dark days with light I wana see right through you with feeling not just sight Coz I see all stars in you not just those that shine in the night. I felt for you before you even said my name. And if my luck is anything to go by, you'll probably never feel the same.

Today I was called Perfect. His exact words were "You're perfect" As flattering as it sounds. It terrifies me. Because after kissing a few frogs with no sign of a prince making his magical appearance, anything flattering becomes... "As much as I'd like to throw myself at the mercy of his heartbeat. Kiss sins off his palms and lay my head on his bed of lies. Latch onto his words and blindly follow his lead. I cannot trust the man you are. I cannot trust a fate I recognize. A broken promise. Smudged mascara And a heaven that was really the devil's peak." But whether he meant it or not. It was the sweetest thing he'd ever said to me.

Always
