Fear Is My Sweater, Paranoia My Blanket ~~~~ PART 1 ~~~~ Afraid of You
Was it me?
Could it be?
A violent storm inside of me?
It wouldn't be.
Yet it feels like so,
no matter how many times I say "no."
I wish it wasn't so,
even my heart says "no."
Yet the closer you get,
the deeper our debt;
Yeah the closer we get,
the storm gets stronger, no need for a bet.
Every touch
drives me nuts
I wish to hold you
close to me,
feel your warmth
bury inside,
melt my soul.
Yet I push and pull,
a child in a tantrum,
desperation to be free.
Yet once we defuse,
you with your wing,
me with my own,
I cannot fly,
just stumble
and tumble
and fall,
my face in a pool
of my own defeat.
Yet every kiss
has my mind in a fuzz.
Sparking fireworks
within my heart,
sending chills
racing down my spine.
I'm mesmorized by you.
Yet I push and pull,
kick and scream,
dig my claws
into your heart,
a child set for damage,
a child in desperation
for freedom.
Yet when you are gone
and I am free,
my wng no longer functions
like it once did.
I flop on the ground,
a fish out of water,
a winged creature
with a damaged left wing,
struggling to live.
If truth be told,
I'd say
'I'm afraid of thee.'
I fear you.
What if
the feeling of warmth and joy,
fades away,
like colrs in a painting,
to hues of grays and blue?
What if
you realise
that loving me
was a big mistake?
So, I'll scratch
and claw
and hiss
and nip your lips
till you give up
and let go.
