Eat my heart out
With your lying eyes
With your clenched fist
Your fake disguise
Twist the dagger
You shoved in my spine
Watch it cry red
I bleed out my mind
You've got me chained
To the ocean floor
To your black heart
I can't breathe anymore
I see my reflection
In your bottomless eyes
And a slave stares back
Silent as it dies
You stole my voice
And spoke for me
Twisted my words
Into a deformity
But I'll never leave you
You trained me well
Kept my leash tight
Dragged me when I fell
My mind is starved
It thirsts for more
More of your abuse
My dreams are sore
From being beaten down
And buried under your burn
Your burning, cold heart
I have much to learn
You're the ring leader
With a crack of your whip
But I see through your act
You read from a script
You're flying high now
I mean nothing at all
But the higher you go
The harder you fall.

Writing is a passion that I used to have until my life got too busy. I'm making a solid effort to make time for it again, though.
