 Donning the Mask once again
Thinking I have left myself behind and moved on to what was beat in my head as right
I throw the bottle out and take a glass of water, aching like someone has been drilling in my mind and gut.
 Listening to a man tell you what you need is usually a bad thing, we all know what we need.  
And I turn myself around thinking, What have I just said?  
I have said what I did not do and walking backwards I hold the serpent by the tail, taunting him to strike.  
In a frenzy I am captivated by your beauty and never even feel the slice of the tooth, the perfect fit into the groove, skin becoming one.  
Would you like to know what I really thought?
How my mind told me to be like Christ and walk with love.  
How my heart pounded and my thoughts scattered as love touched me and broke the strength I had.  
Sadder Days are coming but I know we all stand in this ergonomic smoke cloud together no matter what side of yes or no we stand on.  
Convincing myself i can be loved i spoke the word that made you run as i have 100 times before.  
but I will be there anytime you would like to cry or even if you cannot control it and become a rain cloud anyway.
I would swallow daggers and split my atoms just to soothe you girl.
