Hold me
Graze my fingertips with empathy
Let me twirl in distress
And let my dress ripple
within my heart
within my mind
within your hands
Let my eyes pour out a conversation so dark
that it cancels out the light
A darkness
so
soulful
yet so bright
Leave me alone when I cry
Because I can't bear to lie
one more time
Let my eyes guard me
from the light
let myself die
a hundred times
Let my hands pierce my own flesh
let my emotions to be seen as clear as mesh
The dimness will distract you from my eternal sadness
And then
I'll be happy again
you can hold me
when I all make sense
When I'm not too complex
for you to understand
but I must warn you
that one day
you will hold me
not when my eyes
are pouring out
not when my emotions are dim and brash
but when I smile
I'll smile for you
just that one last time
before I go home
to eventually
and happily
meet my fate
and hold death's hand
