I Am, by Neseblod Subscribe to rss feed for Neseblod

I am Pain
Touch me, and I shall destroy you

Those are the words I said
When you wanted to be near me
I said everything I could
Just to make you fear me

But you touched me anyway
For you knew my words were lies
I never could destroy you
So I took off my disguise

I am Lie
Touch me and I shall invade your life

Those are the words I said
When you gave me your first kiss
Did all I could to stop you
I even raised my fist

But you kissed me anyway
Made me feel pure and new
For what lie could I tell you
If it wasn't to protect you?

I am Love
Touch me and I will make you hurt

Those are the words I said
When you wanted to caress
Said them over and over
But believed in them less and less

For you caressed me anyway
As if I was your All
Like I was your Forever
Before the final fall

I am Fragility
Touch me and I will die

Those are the words I said
When you wanted to make love to me
Repeated them as a mantra
Afraid that you'd might hurt me

And you actually left me
And never came back again
You sacrificed everything
To free me from my pain

I wish you'd come back now
For now I know that Loneliness carries a lot more pain than
Fragility...
