A fleeting emotion
sparks a tiny candle flame...

Eyes have dulled
limp fingers loosing their hold...

Im always running
running as fast as i can...

I'm screaming and screaming
loud screeching nails of fire...

You keep your cards so close to your chest
It's wonder you have any friends...

Beauty and grace
a voice leaving men...

Wish for emotions
blistered and raw...

I've grown tired
of my throat tightening...

His kiss
lingers deep...

I carry shame
like a beloved companion...

Trained feet, shuffle
through this brutal dance...

She was the queen...
sheltered in a castle made of molded candy...
