Bruises upon bruises
He left me black and blue
A single mistake shattered my dream
The sound of steel still echoes through the darkenss
Empty eyes staring up at the sky, the smoking car, and the stench of wine.
My childhood stolen, slipping away from my fingers like loose sand
A deal made
A bride sold
A man has his rights
And so begin the solemn hours
A decade passed, smiles turning false and brittle
Society moved faster, knowledge behind their eyes
None dared rise against the demon
They trembled under his gaze
As I tremble under his touch
Then you came in like a blazing ball
igniting a spark I long thought extinguished
Hope flickering in the darkness
Your gentle touch a sharp contrast against the harshness
You noticed that everyone had
But you did not turn away as others had
You stood against the demon like a knight
But I am no damsel in distress
From porcelain to ivory to steel
With your silent courage
Your presence in the shadows
I took the knife
Flesh parting as butter
His skin had never felt so sweet
With Gasping breaths, and disbelief
the demon turned to boy
A broken shell, he was no real man
For men don't take they earn
And those who take they fall
You looked at my blood-soaked gown
At the madness dancing in my eye,
At the body still warm
And you smiled
Oh, Monster of my Heart
They tell me you are gone
Yet
I hear you in every creek
I see you in every flickering light
Knees up, back against the wall
I lay wide awake
Oh, Monster of my heart
Why do you haunt me so?
Have you not done enough?
There is only so much a mind can take
Virtual or Reality?
Truth or Lie?
Are you a conjuration of my mind?
A taunting hallucination
A waking nightmare
Oh, Monster of My Heart
Why do you tease me so?
Is it your hand I feel?
Tracing the lines of your masterpiece
My bruised battered body
The cold on my neck
Is it a breeze or you breath?
The voice in shadows is it yours or the Neighbours?
Your scent lingering in the air is it fresh or Stale?
Oh, Monster of my heart
Stop taunting me so
Are you here or not?
Why did you leave me so Alone?
