I have become you
all that I ever hated
all that I ever avoided
you ate away at my skin
until you reached the core
where all that is precious lay
alone and waiting
like an open chest
in the hands of a thief
all I ever did was love them,
but you, you hunt beauty
like a total eclipse of the sun
and break each ray of hope
until the moments die
in your needy hands
I was too blind to see them reaching
into the fog
I fell without sight
a creature of night
I never knew where I was running to,
or from
never had the eyes, the light
to see what I've become
in the distance.
