Poem
My shy moth eyes were attracted to the beauty of your flame The pleasure of knowing you was worth the risk of me feeling the pain From the hurt burn of you leaving ... a house of mirrors with no image of you within I always knew this day would come, certain, like the rising of the sun — Beautiful rabbit you would wanna run Timid, nervous ever ready to flee The mirror of reflection would always set your fear in motion Numbed by the booze, paralyzed by the pills Gave you enough courage to stay still ... but, only for so long Beautiful rabbit on the run, afraid to face the demons you’re running from When the face of reality would sober in, then the cracked mirrors would leave your bleeding heart sobbing So many lovers before me handed you jilted tissues for your self-esteem issue tears Wiping the candle mask of your promiscuity, cold wax let you know when it was time to flee Beautiful rabbit you on the run, wielding your body like a weapon Beautiful rabbit giving the foxy bullet stun, using love like it was a loaded gun Beautiful rabbit on the run, marred habits has disfigured you Ugly memories you can’t let go of, scarred flesh melted by an abusive flame Leaves you often holding a gun, ready to make your last rabbit run Beautiful rabbit, don’t run ... beautiful rabbit lay down the gun It was the loss of your gorgeous butterfly wings, which so attracted me to you I saw the beauty inside others never knew, the vulnerable side you kept hidden from view The trauma of your lovers no longer wanting you, made the truth of the silent phone too painful to hear And the vanity of rejection you use to give, is the emptiness you are now forced to live with Lonely, emotional catacombs you weepingly prefer; the Before portrait on your wall, I never saw her Tragic soul went bed-hopping down the rabbit hole Beautiful rabbit, don’t run ... beautiful rabbit put down the gun Beautiful rabbit, I desperately desire you, let your marred heart be warmed by this truth Beautiful rabbit, don’t run ... finger the safety between my loving arms Beautiful rabbit, don’t leave this way ... burn the suicide note in the fireplace Beautiful rabbit, don’t run away Stay here with me ... please stay the rest of your enchanted cottage days
