My loneliness stands on the threshold of my shadows

It lets darkness tempt it with light
...

Maybe I'm unique

Maybe I'm just weak
...

Let me see you the way you don't want to be seen

Let me know you the way you don't want to be known
...

When I look in the eyes of the innocent

The unwanted, the outcasts, attention deficit
...

Tears flow and my eyes catch on fire

Why do you thrive on my pain
...

Did you know your eyes burn holes

When you need me with your eyes and expect I don't know
...

Darkness brings forth Silence

Both of which are too much to bare
...

You can never trust people for what you see of them

Or what you see in them
...

Maybe you can tell me your deepest, darkest secrets.

Maybe I can decide to trust you and feel your pain.
...

I'm an illusion

I'm not here
...

In the light of the day, time is over my head

I can't bear to watch it pass as it does, so fast
...

The stars hold my salvation in their twinkling livelihoods

The sun radiates as the mother star in our beholding sky
...

You let me love you

And with every thing inside I honestly do
...
