Helplessly In Love

The feathers of your insights brush my lips
sending jolts of electricity through my rusted veins
Your condescending glance sends the glass shattering
raining down shards of misfortunes down whoever questions you
domes of innocence create buildings of unfaltering love
always never looking at the negative side of things
no matter what you do
Your stare is enough to tear the sky apart
and bring down a hail of mishaps to follow the ones who did you wrong
Everything you do is like a fascinating movie
which my eyes are glued to
I've grown to memorize every wrinkle in your face
and perfectly mirror your emotions
I became your puppet unknowingly
Doing everything for your satisfaction
The air is better at picking up hints than me
it tries to drop some by sending a shiver down my spine
but of course, I pay no heed
You keep growing poison trees in my orchard 
But I've turned blind to them
I watch you slowly killing me inside
but I'm too helpless to do anything about it
