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.

You hadn't seen me standing there behind you every night.

I'm not a haunted demon yet I'm not a sweet fairy.

I'm not the kindest person yet I'm not what you'd call scary.

I wanted to be noticed yet still to be ignored,

I couldn't help but wonder what it's like to be adored.

I stood behind an oak and I waited for the bells.

Their story was called midnight and the same story it tells.

It tells me I am late and that I need to retreat,

Maybe wait for tomorrow when perhaps we can meet.

Like I said before, I only saw your reflection,

I would keep away from me, it's for your own protection.

My posts are various inspiration for absolutely anything lying around. And I like seals.

Riddle Me This

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.

Kidnapper

Dear Kidnapper Or psycho captor. It's not TLC if I'm held against my will in this prison cell. I will never say I love you or that we're meant to be. It never will be true, no ending happily.

Stalk

I love you. I have told you more times. Then I remember. Yet you shun me. Don't return my calls. My looks. My shouts. You just keep on walking. But I know you will be mine. So here I sit.
