love-for-the-lovers

Here I lay, trapped in this psychosocial prison Yet, all I can think about is you. It's hard on my heart—beaten They try and try to medicate me—make me aright But as far as you are, I remain blue As I tiredly close my eyes you are the only thing in my sight Here I lay in a dim, flickering light Surrounded, I feel alone without you near by I wish you were with me tonight You would make me so insanely ecstatic—change my mood on a dime But, alas, as I lay here, I give a reluctant sigh I won't see you, not for some time Soon enough though, I will be better Then I can you once more Karen I'll even cash in on that hug y

You are the honey in my mead That makes my evenings sweet, The champagne in my orange juice Excitable and eager to start my day, The wine in my goblet Dark, dry, and intense, The vodka in my hot cocoa Which comforts and lulls me, A veritable witch's brew Like a potion that elevates my spirits, But there is danger in too much drink, And no magic can cure its crapulence.

Poor, sweet creature She can only hurt herself behind locked doors She is ill She is sick She must be quarantined For her own good as well as others' She couldn't handle the excitement of my world But if I keep her locked away No one has to know she is the company I keep No one has to hear her weep Her mind cannot be saved But I can save her soul That is why I care for her More a ward than a lover My bride need never learn of her This unchaste lunatic in the attic

The woman I love adheres to my soul. I would not exorcise her if I could. The sweet words she whispers can make me whole. Driving her from my heart would do no good. Why do I banish demons from my mind, While her voice lingers as a welcome guest, When she, like any spectre, makes me blind? I must submit to her ev'ry behest! Oft have I awoken from slumber deep Surprised to find she was not in my bed. The dream felt so real that it makes me weep When I realize 'twas all in my head.      Through the darkness sounds a knock at the door.      There stands my love; I'll be alone no more

My voice can charm spirits back from the dead, Yet I can't seem to charm your heart to mine. I can hear the thoughts inside of your head. You think not of me; will I e'er be thine? I bring you blossoms as one would a tomb, Yet still you scoff at my feelings for you. Love grows inside me like life in a womb. You accuse me of intentions untrue. I can prove my love if given the chance, But you've forced me to devise new schemes. The only way for us to share romance I'll come as an incubus in your dreams.     And when the sunrise at last sets you free,     May you awake longing to be with me.

I could spend days, months, or even years Trying to get this right But i'll always be in the shadows Never in your sight I could double check every word Trying to tell the truth But you still won't understand So i'll hold myself aloof I want to write with such eloquence That you'll be powerless under my spell But my pen can't rescue me From my finely written hell I can't complain about this punishment As it is one that i devised With all my pretty songs i trapped us Though i never lied I tried to make our love so beautiful The stuff of fairy tales And for a while it seemed like that Although our charms did fail But i trie

When you met me I was fragile, delicate and confused. You the all knowing artist I your silent muse. Oh, how much has changed That you cannot accept But you know deep down inside I'm no longer your submissive pet. You no longer shape my future To your decisions i no longer agree But still i keep on nodding Waiting for you to see I'm so much stronger Than you will ever know You think i still need you That i will never go I'm independent, No longer need your hand I walk on my own two feet Yet still you don't understand: I was always stronger Than you gave me credit for But i used to want you I don't need you anymore.

Waiting for your humiliation Nothing good about your situation Can smell your perspiration Can almost taste your desperation These words should make you quiver in fear I know you know it Your end is drawing near (It's coming) Nothing you can do No more pain you can cause I know you know it I ain't scared anymore (It's coming) From the darkness will emerge a beast Your nemesis On your blood alone it shall feast (It's coming) I see your expression The glaze in your eyes Your death will give me What is rightfully mine (It's there) No longer do you twist and control My thoughts and my actions, My body and soul. As you are

Through the misty mountains of Bavaria Have I climbed just to make my way to you Soaring high, stricken with hysteria But the pow'r of your love carries me through Wand'ring through the forest so foreboding My one desire to be by your side I press on, not quite sure where I'm going But your voice makes me bold, so on I ride O, my shield and sword are heavy, I know But they don't slow me down, my heart is light Wherever you go, love, I will follow I'll be your Valkyrie throughout the fight     And when the war is won, you'll hold me tight     And you'll be my hero all through the night

Your masculine scent lingers on my skin Your lips felt so soft, yet your hands were strong I'm still not convinced what I did was sin It was destined to happen all along When our hands first touched, the whole world stood still You said there were no hands but yours and mine You begged me not to leave you,  I ne'er will Each moment I spent with you was divine Paranoid, frightened senseless, terrified When you woke that morning, I wasn't there You thought I'd betrayed you, and then you cried I returned to find you ripping your hair     I love you, dear, but your fear frightens me     Please understand this is why we can't be.
