Darkness hides as it lies in wait To prey on the young To prey on the weak

It growls and snarls Its throaty laughs And the girls are left With only times past

A monster A predator That feasts on young trust Is all that you have been All that you will be Just to satisfy your dripping lust

Lust drips from your fangs As the blood from your victims’ hearts Can you hear their cries As though they are darts?

Darts ringing though the air That only you can hear They tear at your brain And you look for your fix Another victim just perhaps

Thoughts of the fire Are with me tonight The heat The glow And of course the light

Things make more sense With a hammer in hand To shape To mold The steel and the sand

Liquid metal Flows like his lies But also such As time passing by

Shaping the steel Into something more Just like I did for him Before I became sore

Sore in the heart Sore in the mind And only left With mangled time

But a lesson learned Is worth the struggle Even if you’re only Left with a puzzle

Time, metal, and sand Aren’t a waste When there’s something Bigger and better in wait

With experience and time I have learned That moving on Is what I prefer

Shaping and molding Something new Will be better than the old When I get through

Now that it’s over Now that I’m done I can re-dream my dreams That are bound to come

Single once more But never alone Thoughts of him Are now my own

Too much time Too much effort To spend on someone Who refuses to comfort Who refuses my love

The light shines upon The lies and the secrets I finally feel like I can move on

Fear of rejection May try to seep in But now I know To not let them in

Memories of a time So much darker than mine Haunt you as you sleep Won’t let you reach the deep

Salt water splatters The can in your hands And it angers me to think That this hurts you like a brand

How I wish I could be there To cry with you To love with you To remember with you

How I wish I could be there To hurt with you To bleed with you To comfort you

I miss your hands on my waist As you pull me close The grin on my face Knowing I’m the girl you chose

I miss your smile And your hand in mine As we talked for a while Not worrying about time

The rain is coming down hard The kind I’d like to kiss you in But the end is coming down harder Makes me wonder if I could breathe again

Your breath echos in my ear From a time when I felt you love me But they surely die with every passing moment I feel less and less free

Trapped in these memories Trapped in these dreams My heart is tearing (tearing) I can’t even seem to breath

I fear that I will loose control And the tears will begin to flow The rejection rips at me Like a monster having been set free

Do I call you? Do I message you? Do I leave you be? All these questions Are left unto me

Too much to decide Too much to assume How do I know The right thing to do?

I still barely know you However, I just want to show you That you’re never alone Never alone as long as I’m here Never alone despite it being too much to bare

Too much to bare The pain of not knowing Of guessing Your thoughts of me Your feelings towards me If your words truly mean what they mean

I’m told I over-think Over-think everything Is that what I’m doing? Over-thinking our loving?

Our loving embraces In the car In the street Your loving glances Over at me
