In my mind
The colors within your gaze slay my yearning soul
Crawl into the crevices between my agony and desire
Inspire hope. Love. Fear
Have I created you in my mind?
Surely nothing so divine is tangible
Sweep me away to the insanity of believing the impossible
Foxtrot through the fire of all that is beautiful
All that will repair my soul
And surely destroy it once more
Gladly I rip the beating heart from my hollow chest
Humbly, on bended knee
Bow my head and offer my entirety
Where am I? This place can't exist
I've created you in my mind
Surely
Oh this madness is like leaves falling from the highest branch
Gently floating to the cold ground
Envelope me as I turn into the colors within your haunting eyes
This fall is never ending
Weightless
Illusion of safety as I fall to my death
Sweep me away
I can only exist with you
And you only exist in my mind
Ethereal darkness
Cease with me
