a silent prayer (per reddo)

conquest of mine
happily I decide
to hypnotize
and stab at your ice

(you’re the only thought in my mind
with great fervor, I follow as if I were blind
but I can’t see in your eyes
a cold shoulder is basically a blizzard
and snowflakes tear my paper skin
but, I’d do it all again)

loveless husk
when it seems times a must
well before life does rust
Which deadly sin is lust?

(even anarchists get lonely
and from what your nature told me
you’re all over sore
couldn’t we share a moment before there are no more
to massage away your aches and pains
to plot again and waste away)

blatant fool
from atop your stool
scream of the cruel
what will you do

(with each beat of your heart
every time you claimed to be torn apart
you changed your heart..
for the better?
that’s hard to say)

goddess dear
when the night seems queer
will you still appear

(I try to forget but, all I can remember
are those moonlit regrets) 

god knows I need you near

(god knows I need you near)
