by TYRE
Twisted by everlasting darkness
I walk with the shadows of the night
The ones from childhood stories
Terrible creatures who bring terror and fear
Broken souls and empty skeletons
Devouring the happiness in the world
Leaving nothing behind but a blind numbness
Then there you go
With a single gaze
My eyes met yours
My heart danced
My bones shook to the marrow
The darkness cowered before your immortal light
I never thought these thoughts
You made me want to cherish this hole
This life
Tossed out the darkness like a stone into the lake
And I fell hard
The armored shell I once wore
Split in two and fell to dust
Risen from the dirt
Free from my cage
The beauty of your gaze save my crippled soul
And that moment
I felt on top of the world
Then reality kicked in
I fell back to earth
I don’t believe in fairytales
No love at first sight
So I never tried…
