"Tears in Your Hands"

Living in a world that is not mine
A creature born of yourself
Too blind to see
Muted lips seeking pleasure
Prisoner of your own pain
Beauty hidden beneath your skin
Falling in your shadows
Floating in the darkness
I run, yet I follow
Bleeding into where you resist
An eternal wanting and need
I dart into your thoughts
Clouds descend from your fix
Truth lying between reality and illusion
An ethereal twist
I should have, I could have flown away
Deserving of more than you give
I speak to you, are you in there?
Your ghost passing through
I reach out, but cannot touch
Choked on emotions, the spire is hot
I breathe you in, falling into the flames
A faltered hinge that doesn’t let me in
Something keeps you numb
Crucifying your own soul
Fires burning, I’m running fast
.

.

Walking out of your dream
To dream my own dreams
.
.
.

Leaving my tears in your hands
