T'was on a eve of fear and fraught
In which your existence was naught
In a world without you, my dearest star
Reality and existence seem so far
They slip from my hands, loose in my grasp
Where I wish you were instead, at last
Burning like acid against my skin
For the limitations I hold deep within
Behind my flesh and under my bone
I know at my core I have grown
I will say not a word to alarm you
For our time is not and never due
You have your lovers, your amiss muses
Even if you only confuse his
feeble mind with every new word
And shifting behavior from what I assume is your herd
And I heard the way your voice changed that day
Be it falsity or delusion, I think nay
Though I think what I like, for the world is fluid
In my shifting perception, I am your druid
Your deer, your prey, your monarch, your guard
If only you were to lower your guard
My love, my enemy, would you please just see
That it is them, not I, who is a threat to thee
I am patient and have waited for you to understand
That our minds are born of the same wretched land
And if I wait forever, that is the curse that I choose
For I would rather sit in the shadow of a noose
