the dreary nightfall
whispers to me
your secrets
when you're alone
but not really;
in love with a mannequin
you press your sinful lips,
she smiles into your kiss

you like her better
always did
should've seen it from the start;
I wonder
how
I missed it

It was in your eyes
your very gaze;
desires were burning
and I was
at the end
of your searing rage

ashamed
embarrassed
you're a fanatic;
got a passion for perfection,
can't say it's a healthy one

have to, but
have to agree with you
won't want to mess
with your hierarchy
of control

every single day
I'm accepting
your ideals,
accepting
your love-
bruised a dark blue

these tired eyes
don't faze me
anymore,
hollow
empty
void and numb;
just like the heart
I don't feel
no more

it's a silent house
you've gagged my brain;
fallen in love with a corpse
with a perfect body
as you'd say

you decorated my bruises
with stars of your dreams-
made me love my shadow
just like you;
I wish I could
just fade away

I'm fading away.

a/n: Hello loves. How are you all?
Happy? Sad? Well rested? Tired?
I want to know.
