The Triangle

I see him time
And time again
I know what he sees
And can't stop him
From looking
While the other one looks on

He thinks that I have
Something to give him
So I keep him away
To keep him from hoping
As I love him from a distance
While the other one looks on

Nothing as important
As keeping them separate
His oblivious eyes, crosshairs
Mine, their target
And I sense murderous gaze
While the other one looks on

He is pride
He is strength
And he doesn't yet know the extent
Of the danger
While the other one looks on

Disinterested indifference
I must play the part perfectly
For if he was hurt
I would surely die as well
My casual costume is his protection
From the other one who looks on

A rose as a metaphor for a wolf in sheep’s clothing. A beauty hard to surpass, where mishandling may result in injury or death. You could be a rose, that metaphor would fit, but I decided against it.

You throw me away. But I always gravitate back to you. It's as if you're a magnet and I'm a twisted, jagged piece of metal. But I'm not as strong as metal..... ....I'm not even magnetic.

There's Only Me

There's only me, to mend your broken heart, when it tears at the seams. There's only me, when your head is aching, and you need someone for you to ease.

Intoxication

Intoxication, you're running through my veins, Inflicting so much pleasure that it's causing pain. You make me feel like crying, But instead I'm here still smiling.

Nile--The River Boy

There is a boy. His name reminiscent of a river. His pride strong and flowing like the waters that flood its banks. His wit as willful as it's boastful current.

Reflection

I could see your reflection in the surface of the mirror-lake, I stood stone still not to scare you, mostly for my sake. I didn't want you to be frightened, or angry as you might.
