Let me be Colorful

The End

I allowed you to take my hand
but I wish now I had never offered it
these moonless nights where I long for the sun to rise
because my eyes fear this darkness that has fallen
from a kiss placed gently upon my lips
I let you take me
to this place where our
breaths were in tune with heartbeats
this rythm in tune with the earth
rotating at 360 degrees backwards
replaying every sentence since birth
trying to decipher fiction from fact
to figure out if these past months
were just an act
or if somewhere in the midst of all this
you began to fall
you lept into my arms blindly
and seemingly wanting my offerings
but there was another
she had your commitment
your promise of forever
but somehow
you forgot to mention her
forgot how to respect her
disreguarded that you should protect her
instead spent late nights connected with another
me and as blindly as you lept I kept my eyes closed tighter
wanting to lose sight of this frightened little girl inside me
I held tight on the thought you could hurt me
and you did
so now I hold on white knuckled to the winter inside me
hoping to burn away the warmth you brought me
because your lack of honesty proved ruthless
could have given me truth but chose this
half hearted fucked up twisted version of this
world I thought you were letting me into
and since you I've wrapped myself in this skin you
have no idea how defenseless you made me
through embraced irises I was caving
sweet kisses I was craving
and you'd whisper sweetdreams while you played me
a lullaby of how it was you I was saving
we killed lonelieness together
I thought you could make me better
but bitterness has invaded and now I'm wondering
who will save me?
