I
A perfect rejection
emotions laid bare
I gave all I thought I had
but never enough
something seems to tear
rip & claw at the entrance of my heart
right from the very start
I knew this would end in tears
My greatest fear
My greatest love
My deepest detest
for the things I let myself feel
In my mind I secretly blame you
yet I know it's me
that place I let no one see
When I wish upon the Pleiades
I understand the fullness of regret
I got what I did not want
So a man's heart
given unto that desire
all consuming
now just a pile of ash
there is no magical phoenix
only despair rising
scratching
climbing
out of this white washed tomb
If ever what I longed to be
still a fragment of remains
then you must have taken it
whilst I slumbered
I can't seem to feel that promise
I can't seem to see that future
with a resounding crash
my heart in pieces
I think you understand me but just don't care
but still I feel the need to share
these deepest things
emotions laid bare
I gave all I thought I had
but never enough
something seems to tear
rip & claw at the entrance of my heart
right from the very start
I knew this would end in tears
My greatest fear
My greatest love
My deepest detest
for the things I let myself feel
In my mind I secretly blame you
yet I know it's me
that place I let no one see
When I wish upon the Pleiades
I understand the fullness of regret
I got what I did not want
So a man's heart
given unto that desire
all consuming
now just a pile of ash
there is no magical phoenix
only despair rising
scratching
climbing
out of this white washed tomb
If ever what I longed to be
still a fragment of remains
then you must have taken it
whilst I slumbered
I can't seem to feel that promise
I can't seem to see that future
with a resounding crash
my heart in pieces
I think you understand me but just don't care
but still I feel the need to share
these deepest things
