Determine my footsteps to the light
Emotionally unhappy

Bright Light, Dim Light? DARK!
In the midst of the raging waves,
they watched her gulp the callous cunning darts.
Her crumbly heart cruelly impaled; the fate that enslaves.
So fondly she’d mask the marks.
Her soul would ache and bleed from life’s glaives.

Got down in the dumps
Was down and out

elbows bent with hand over heart
Eyes swaying side to...

When he looked at her in that lustful way
Drowning my voice as my tongue I silenced
She was my shield against his violence
I had so devalued her existence
That from me...

Dressed to match, riches stash,
Pseudo rich and all pretence
Having no feelings or sincere sense.

Look down on others, scornfully sure.

This Mystery About Me...
Whoever tries to interfere
with this mystery about me:
is in for a stunning surprise,
everything deeply concealed
can't possibly be revealed!
Others will sell their soul to green,
to be in the glamorous spotlight;
and the irony, beside the...

Under the bridge of illusion was it made
Unlimited limitation driving guts of guilt

Silhouettes of love in plight demons dancing in delight
