You and my Demons

10 6 1
                                    

I want your eyes
Because they are pools of ultramarine reflecting the stars
And though your mind is
A spiral of darkness and death
I still love your eyes
They will be mine.

I want your heart
Because I have reached out for it so many times
It's become a habit;
That heart will be mine.

I want your soul
So I can hold it close
To drive away the demons
Refuse to become comatose.

Because they drive me
And hurt me
And scream and throw me
Because they are trapped inside my mind
Oh, maybe when you're mine
They'll fly into the night
Away out of sight.
