Locked Away

Allow me to see inside
I desperately search for the key
Failing in my search
Someone else found it first

Standing in the darkness
Peering in the keyhole
Seeing the beauty of you
separating myself from my wishes

Shadows dance within the door
Voices heard from your soul
Laughter pours into my head
Laughter of my dread

Wishing to be inside
Clouded visions start to arise
Rationality ceases to exist within me
Anger mounts in my soul

A demon locked inside of me
Releases itself
Breaks the door
Everything disappears like a mirage in the desert

My faulty perception of the world destroys me
Your warmth touches mine
Releasing my desires
Truth crashes my deception

Wrecks the depths of my soul
Annihilates my heart
Relentlessly reaching for you
But this blockade obstructs your view

Darkness surrounds my only thoughts
Your ignorance destroys my soul
Confusion between us
I slowly fade away

Lost in a stranger’s embrace
A stranger named loneliness
My new dwelling
Because your careless confusion
