He only steals the souls of beauty
I’m excluded for sure
But then why am I in his arms now ?
He makes me feel alive away from my hat shop
Is this love?
But jealousy takes over and
Ages me and bends my back forward
And makes my knees weak
Any chance of beauty I had before is gone now
But why am I in his castle now ?
I am old but he values me
And can see right through my curse
His skin holds on tight to his bones
For he is trying to lose himself
His heart is gone, eaten by a demon
And fueled with fire and ash
The evil he battles within
Triumph over the external that charge his way full speed
I need the key
To free him of this prison he has created
I dig deep into my bag of tricks
And pull out my confidence with a hint of courage
And a tad of love for that is all the magic I possess
His fight will be my fight and I will not let him hurt
Alone
Because I know the solitude of it
And how it rips up your insides
Like a hoe dragging through cold dirt
Let me in
Please
Just let me in
She was so different then the rest I’ve wooed
She did not try to look elegant, she was simple
Simply beautiful, like the organ within her chest
One I do not possess the same as you
Made a deal with a demon
And he ate it whole
For the heart causes you so much pain
Pain I do not need
But she shows up again in a form not her own
She’s been cursed by a
Past lover and her safety is endangered
I will protect the unpickable flower that sprouted
Through the cracks my heart left
But will I make it
The real me, the darkness is sweet with its words
And has invited me to play but I do not want to
But I always end up staying for a bite
I’m turned into a black bird of pure darkness
The sludge that seeps out my pores sticks
Like how she has stuck to me
She lights up my path and is much stronger
Than all my magic combined
She will not leave me to drown in the sea of riveting eyes
She pulls me out as quick as sound
I love her and I can’t admit it to my heart
For it is not their
I thought I escaped this pain long ago
Set me free
Please
Just set me free
