I greatly depise these thoughts


I greatly depise these thoughts of you that conflict with my sense of stability These long empty halls that crave to be filled with consistency Requesting refuge from these knives of insecurity My ears begin to search for the cure to this uncertainity in your speech They long to hear those words that fear forbids you to speak But not a sound,not even a creak Although your silent footsteps Your graceful tip-toe,through these lonely halls like a thief Afraid how the legal purchase of this heart will apprehend your freedom You'd rather be illegal?a criminal? that awaits the stroke of midnight to snatch this heart,so no soul sees it So it's yours,your only secret But I am unsure,if I am a secret then surely theres more. Tell me,is your love without cause? because you progress then you pause,you progress then you pause Like the word 'reluctant' begins to draw your attention to the rest of these pink-plated souls that are in request of your heart's all So I bust the springs of my eyes So the world will know that my heart has been wronged. But these tears do not even have a reason to fall But I guess it's my fault,my flaw Because I choose to see you through the windows of those false painted fairytales of old So I sit here eyes bimming with excitement that soon marries dissappointment in this glittering gown that my fairy godmother toiled So yes I am the Cinderela that never got to go to the ball
