Danger
My perception has drastically changed over the course of time
I constantly follow danger although his heart is no longer mine
Like a baby, through lust our love was conceived
He grabbed me and his touch made me believe
I remember drinking from his same cup
While frivolously visioning a future with just us
Now danger, which I didn’t fear leaves me scared
Maybe it’s because I never know if he’s really there
So many times, from the words of my mouth I’ve confessed
To an occurring addiction, saw my conviction, but gave him the best
Danger is also not ready to let go and let me be
Even with closed eyes, we’re all that we see
In every fantasy, every melody, there he stands…lurking
I try to scream, but none of my vocal organs remain working
I feel his presence, his intense breathing on my neck
I tremble because through his darkness, I cannot see even a speck
But his touch is familiar and my muscles are no longer tense
Danger has a way of keeping me on suspense
I turn around to face him or rather his shadow
He’s disappeared……… Danger leaves my heart hollow.
