I’m not awake,
I’m wide asleep.
Got a gun in one and
A rose in my sleeve.
This ecstasy of us burning in love,
Has led me to decisions I can’t un-turn.
Violence from words,
My heart somewhere hurts
Craving for your trust,
I’m submerged.
Break this curse and lift me up…
I thought you were divine,
You’re not even fairy dust.
Compensating for wealth,
Arguing in a shell
I never asked to touch you but,
You know me so well.
Not by definition, but,
I declare this hell.
Want to love you so much more,
Got nothing left in my store.
It was easy building this up,
Watching it all go to dust,
In a single, unfamiliar hug.
