Never

***
Chasing my last breath
I wait here in the dark
To unleash the creature
You trapped inside my heart.
Echoes and memories
Fall from my bleeding eyes
I’m stronger than this pain
My words are only lies.

Never was a moment
That stole my frozen heart.
I saw you in a moment
And it was just the start.
Kingdoms have fallen
Before my very breath
But you woke the boy that
I thought I could forget.

Though Angels have faltered
To walk these very steps
I followed my heart
Into its darkest depths.
And you were there waiting
Your eyes of Amethyst fire.
I lost in that moment
You trapped me with desire.

Now Never has broken
The promise that I gave.
I hold you broken
Forever still a slave.
Kingdoms will crumble
Before I let you go
The light in your eyes fade
and that is when I know.

Chasing my last breath
I wait here in the dark
To unleash the creature
You trapped inside my heart.
Torment and anguish
Fall from my bleeding eyes.
I say that I’ll forgive them
My words are only lies.
