Lure me with your words, those silent snakes
Trap me in your arms, do whatever it takes.
Sweet, a casual, tempting lullaby at first.
Licorice does not fulfill humanities thirst.
Hide away my heart with your touch.
Promise me that I never really needed it that much.
Lace through my hands with a touch and a smile.
Remind me of how you used to be, if only for awhile.
Lure me into your arms of steel
Let me pretend that none of this is real.
Caress me with bruises, love me in pain,
It is hard to realize that I went insane.
Promise it will never happen again, and I almost believe.
Until I see my blood on your hands, and I wonder
What it would be like to leave.
I never thought you would throw me, a doll, to the floor.
You tempt me to stay but now I'm staring at the door.
To all of you in abusive relationships... find your door.
