In this world of darkness why should I let go of my only sunshine
My only smile
My only worth wild
The softness of the petals
The strength of the steam
The comfort of its being
It all gives my existence a meaning
I took something that never belonged to me
But how do you let go of a flower in this world of weeds
Slowly I destroy her pawns, while closing in on her king
I hold onto her one and only as though this was something she owed me
Her eyes gleam of wondrous things
Thoughts of a future that will never be
My mind wondering if she can see through our lies
Wondering what her flower is doing while she twiddles her thumbs to pass the time
He leaves her messages of love and sweetly kisses her lips
Makes her believe her presence is missed
Slips into the arms of me
While I sit back and watch her dreams become my reality
It hurts to know her efforts are being dismissed
I lay in her bliss
I sip her wine
Never thinking twice as I water her flower night after night
True happiness can't be felt
My soul is torn
Never letting her know she's in the middle of a war
Its easy to look at the glass half empty from the outside
But in the midst of the mayhem is where I reside
Dancing in the heavenly fields of the hellish burning sands
Bittersweet is the name of this land
The deceit is one thing, the feelings is another
It's like living in the harsh winter...while lying with summer
I can't give it back...
This flower is mine
I will watch each blissful petal bloom...
In our stolen sunlight
