Forsworn

O sacred blood of my blood,
I drink you in like the sweetest wine;
Being without you is agony,
A thousand deaths all rolled into an instant;
I could never write the words
You make me feel, so close to me...
Yet your eyes are a million miles away.

Timeless wanderer, spread beneath the stars,
All the galaxies in all of the worlds
Dwelling deep within fathomless dimensions,
As hollow as the human heart,
Couldn't stretch far enough
To keep my soul away from yours...

The gap between the stars and scars
Closes ever faster;
That sweet, secluded smile
Dancing across your lips,
How it pains me to see into your soul
So easily,
Yet I'm invisible to you...

You see me,
But you don't see me.

And I guess it's fair because...
I love you, but I don't;
I am not allowed to love you,
Life is cruel that way...
It's scary how much it hurts
To be without you every day.

Separated by such a vast abyss,
I will follow you, across ages past,
Until I can finally have
What was never meant for me...
Heartwrenching pain,
It's a lot like falling in love,
It hurts but...
I don't care; I am numb.

Needles sink into my skin,
Endorphins swallowing my tongue;
You devour me with hungry midnight eyes,
And yet I can never get far enough
To see who you are inside.
All I see is nothing,
And you're so much more than that...
You're everything.

The devil's smile slid across your lips,
Pouring into mine, across all space and time...
I would walk through the depths of hell
Just to drag you back with me,
If only things could be different,
Just for once;
Even if for only a moment...

This heavy sinking within my heart
Cannot ever be helped,
The heart wants what it wants...
And it always will.
You are emblazoned there,
Forever and always.

You're a sinner
That no one else can handle;
You are amazing,
Even if no one else thinks so...
Judas to my Priestess...
Please be safe.
You are loved.
You are love itself.

This burden is mine to bare,
Watching you walk away
With her on your heels...
That was the single most difficult feat
My heart has ever attempted.
Yet I let it all drift by,
On silver wings of bladed agony...

Holding myself back...
I don't know how much longer
I can keep doing this,
And then I see your smile;
Your sweet smile,
Cracking the porcelain facade,
And I remind myself...
As long as it takes.
