Blood Stains
Let me in;
I’m out in the freezing cold- all alone
I’m the burning red in the pure white snow
Open the door to your safe haven Give me the key to your heart,
Lift the blinds from the window to your soul
Give me a hint
Just a tease, a peek at the Small details
Let me know the Grand Design
Quench my thirst, satisfy
My Wicked Appetite
Lift these chains of fire from which I succumb
Let me in;
I am but A Secret Kept, a promise unbroken, a story untold
My lips are sewn, my voice is shattered
My Sacred Sins go unnoticed
My pain I endured, then put away
And locked up. And hid.
I swallowed the key.
Oh, Clockwork Angel,
I bow to you
And all your glory
Tell me when it’s time to go; Tell me secrets I’m allowed to know
The MockingJay inside of me
Chirps and Squawks at the sound of your
Ticking Clocks.
Let me in;
Ignite the flame
Extinguish my chains
Lift me up, give me wings
Name the Unnamed- love the Unloved
I’m getting to happy, finding perfect
I mold myself for you, into your muse.
But don’t let down your guard yet, this isn’t what it looks like
Love me if you dare-
Try to survive The Jungle that is my wrath.
Hang on by a thread, Swing and sway
To the beat of my pounding drum
Will my scissors away
But the tables have turned
The scene is inverted
Let me out;
You succumbed to your heart,
As expected
You knew not to, but you did
Naive, you are unaware
Your coils and screws came undone
The springs went flying and disappeared into the darkness
The Clock is broken,
It combusted on the floor and I stomped on its remains
What time is it?
Its night.
Let me out;
It’s a full moon
You’re under my rule
Held down by my chains of fire
They’re burning your skin, Melting away your harsh exterior
And revealing your soul
My sacred sin-
Starved by my wicked appetite,
I take what is yours, and give you nothing of mine
You are nothing but a secret let out,
Then put in my box. Locked away.
You’re fooled, your vision is altered.
I’m not a dove, I’m not purity. I’m a wolf- a predator.
You’re blinded by the vines of my jungle
You may wake up.
In the dark all alone as the clock chimes midnight.
You will not find me, for I will be nowhere to be found
I’ll be out,
Howling at the moon.
