Mocking temptation
Held in deception's lair
Something so right
Turned radically unfair
Painted facade
Speak saccharine lies
Oh, how I loved you
When you taught me to fly.

Now enter the shadows
And fall into the abyss
But I take one more sip
From that poisonous kiss
Hate. Jealousy. Envy.
Didn't know I could feel.
Broken down, empty
The pain is so real.

Stolen moment reflection
I thought I was strong
Smug cheshire cat
You had to prove me wrong
I take a look in the mirror
At the me that you've made
Grieve empty soul
And watch myself
Fade...

Now you seem but a negative.
The faded picture of your soul,
Needs redevelopement.
A victim of bad circumstance,
Caught in a black hole;
But you will regain your focus
And remember how to live...

Oh my..this one is beautiful! How do you do it? I dont know why I didn't reply to it before, but its going into my library now.

And palm to palm is holy palmers' kiss.--"Romeo and Juliet"
