I hesitated…
For moments.
I thought they´d be lost, I thought there would be more.
Afraid I could miss my chance if I lost my concentration. Did I lose it? What a stupid question!
No.
There was nothing there but two souls. Ghosts from different worlds.
Lost in poison and lust. Fear and bravery, how can they be confused, desperate and lonely how do you choose?
I thought I did it all, I did and still… where have you been, where are you now? In the clouds? On the ground? Your piercing gaze can´t be found, near mine. I thought we could fit, we should fit, don´t you think? No. It´s that simple, it never is...
Dancing for you, smiling for you, forever, for you. Pain can´t describe, holes, deeper than all. Emtyness sinking it´s teeth into my heart, like a beast, like your beast.
It won´t come after me...
Wherever I´ll be, you won´t remember me. The heap left on the tree, swaying, crying, every day. I´d rather go down, sinking, smirking, sobbing in your love than end up like this, swallowed by the slightest sound of breath
you take...
I hesitated.
