A Haunted Love
Faceless ghosts that dance within
Outsider’s eyes that seek out sin
A poison I can’t help but see
It’s in this corner they yearn to be
Honest answers in my design
But I am speaking to your lies
I pray for something to help me feel
This broken place; the last thing that’s real
So much sorrow and distaste
To look ahead at yesterday
A spiral promise that drags me on
Another pain freezes the sun
Hidden darkness shines within
The light I need becomes nothing
Where everything I loved at last
Becomes forgotten; turned to ash
A vagrant hope leaks from my heart
Placed over demons in the dark
Another ghost that seeks to end
The place within that I must defend
