Always and Forever

You have not made me cry for the very last time,

You have seen a world I have never wished to share…

You have known the pain of a porcelain child,

One I have left behind to drown in her own blood,

Left in the care of a mother too young to know herself.

I hid this world so well, under rubble, dust and blood…

Hid it from sight until I could not see it anymore.

The last breath of an angel was the beginning of a lifetime,

And she rejoices today in a world she does not know,

A world a doll does not belong in.

Before you came along, my love, I never knew

The pain I leave behind when I depart in the night,

But never further than two steps behind your gorgeous body,

Ready to catch you and kiss you and pick you up…

Ready to hold your dreams away from harm.

Wish you would trust me every now and then,

Love like this you will never reciprocate, and that is more than fine,

For, love, your human self can only contain

So much passion for another monster sitting over your closet

Watching your beautiful dreams, intruding rudely.

I wish you could see, my love, the timeless elegance you have always had… always and forever.
