Theme: Domestic violence
A rough sketch of some rhymes and imagery I’m experimenting with. Yes, it’s a mess.
Love’s but a game for two hearts untamed
Effervescence fades, tenderness turns to jade
Somber lullabies and far too many reasons why
Never hearing the other side, a glacier’s landslide
Will these wounds start to heal
The impending doom I feel
Love cast by darklight, pray for no backslides
Gotta stay alive
Live or die
Can I stay alive
Run and hide
Threats of homicidal love masked as suicide
Always used lies for his alibies
No where to hide
No where to hide
Love cast by darklight, pray for no backslides
Gotta stay alive
Live or die
Can I stay alive
Run and hide
Love’s never been real, just a way to steal
Another piece of a fractured identity
Your cruelty’s unrelenting, no time for reminiscing
The heart’s a fragile keepsake, a small token of devotion
Your false emotion, tried to stir commotion in another’s masquerade
And flames to incinerate, but we’re not deaf to its hollow serenade
Love cast by darklight, pray for no backslides
Gotta stay alive
Live or die
Can I stay alive
Run and hide
Perfectly Human
