Vacancy, part one

I just wanted to be all alone again.
Because that helps numb the pain.
When all I can hear is the silence, I know I have nothing to gain.
I have no victories nor defeats, just draws, me and my vacancy.

But then he showed up.
I didn't want it, but my eyes widened when the knocker pulled up.
I opened the door without a second thought
Yet my mind bought nothing of the lies he sold.
I knew he shouldn't be here, I don't need him.
I'm strong and independent, but when I set my eyes on him,
I know once more, he is my unforgettable sin.

When I'm alone, I can have the clarity to think about important topics.
When he's around, my brain doesn't think because the butterflies in my stomach already took that job.
Our story, Bonnie and Clyde, I guess.
So odd and new, yet so known for something so little.
I ponder on why that could be
But then I realize I am she.
The Lillith in Lucifer's hands.
The singer in a pile of bands.
The seal in a world of dominant walrus.

I am his. Yet he is not mine.
He can leave and I will forgive him when he returns.
But I am trapped.
He is the power, the one who practically owns my every breath.
He has vacancy, yet I have none, for he fills that void.
My sign says No Vacancy...
