Broken Glass

You never tell me
What goes on
In that little mind of yours
But I know it anyway
So when it is time
For me to go
Who is going to ask you
If you are okay?
Because this time
I am going to a place
Where I am beautiful
And I do not think
I will ever come back
But if you miss me
You can always see me
When you look through the broken glass
Of an empty brown bottle
You can see me smiling
And if you are not okay
I will find a way
To make it all better
Only if you tell me
What goes on in your mind
Because I'm not coming back
To ask you if you are okay

Hate

I have been hypnotized
And then stripped down
But I have never felt as naked
As when I met you years ago
And looked into your eyes
I had a strange feeling then
As if you could see into my soul
And I couldn't look away

I have been hurt
Badly enough to leave scars
But nothing makes me ache
More than your absence

And I have been in love
So many times that I lost count
But you're still the most special
Because I seem to have
Fallen in hate with you

Teardrops

I look out the window
The sky is clear
The sea duplicates it hue
Endless blue
But only I know
That deep, deep down
Where the blue turns to black
Nothing is calm
Only chaos exists
A void
Growing larger by the minute
While the surface remains unaware
And then without warning
There is a storm
Heavy raindrops
Splattering down relentlessly
Mercilessly
Drenching my own cheeks
The waves thick with emotion
Enraged, aggravated
I look out the window
It is a  beautiful day
Nobody sees the black
Only endless blue
And I am left wondering
What makes teardrops fall 

Resurrection

I want to be taken home
Intoxicated
With fire in my veins
Lying in a pool of blood
Screaming
Then I want to be put to sleep
My bloodshot eyes closed
My screams still echoing
I want to be whipped
In a darkened dungeon
I want to be kissed
With venomous lips
I want to be caressed
With spiked canes
I want to open my eyes
And see you there
Equally wounded
Shackled beside me
I want to see the inferno
Swallowing us whole
As we descend again
Resurrected

I Know Who Killed Me

I remember it well
The empty street
The stillness of the night
And the piercing screams
A girl was murdered
Stabbed to death
But I didn't do it
Why don't you believe me?
I wasn't even there
I kept my distance
As I watched myself do it
But it wasn't me
The knife was mine
There was blood on my hands
But I know I'm innocent
Just believe me
Before I knew it
The sky had lightened
And the street was red
When you arrived
You blamed me
Why didn't you listen to me?
I was so scared
You had tears in your eyes
Why were you crying?
I wanted to hold you
But I was so very scared
And then they carried me away
Why didn't you stop them?
They covered me with a sheet
I couldn't see you anymore
But the last thing I saw
Was the shimmering sun
I remember it so well
All was golden in the sky
The day I died

Stronger

He came into my life
Like a thundering storm
And he swept me off my feet
Took my life
And tore it apart
Ever so lovingly
He grabbed my wrists
And whispered run
I ran harder than ever before
Like some desperate howling demon
He reached for me
And I collapsed
He handed me a blade
And told me not to cry
He carved my skin
With exceptional care
And told me I looked beautiful
He soaked me in blood
And hung me out to dry
He took his charm
And whipped me with it
With every scar
I became more human
When I could finally speak
I told him I loved him
And with a dazzling smile
He walked away

Alive

Take my hand and come with me
Let loose for once
Get up and leave everything behind
Give yourself to me
Shut off your mind
And turn your body on
Let's do what we want
Let us set ourselves on fire
And run through the wild
Hand in hand
Let us cut each other open
And sew it all up again
Let ourselves burn a little
Before we start crying
Let the wounds open up
And then try again
Let us push ourselves
Until we're about to break
Tell me your fears
And let me take you there
Take my hand and walk with me
Let's dance until we're sore
Let's bury ourselves in the ground
And leave the graves wanting more
Let me rip out your heart
And fuse it with mine
Let's fall in love
And keep falling as we learn to fly
Let's bleed passion
Until we feel alive
