I’ve got nothing to hide,
I have nothing to hide.
Nothing amiss.
Except…perhaps… for this.
The instant I feel you,
my mind is rewritten.
The curtains pulled from dusty shelves,
and flowers rain from the ceiling.
Inside, I turn and seethe and scream
that you see me though, so easily.
And you judge me and long for me
To stay free.
Can you not understand, my lord,
what I would leave to
Just hold you in that embrace
which is played on Carmen’s flute?
You said you loved me. You say
you love me… am I wrong?
Is there only pity in your heart that brings
these walls? Or am I wrong…?
Pulling every candle,
Remedying the night’s light
Can I solve this riddle?
Do you, don’t you. Why do you hide?
Pushing, pulling, reeling, throwing…
Each thought is nothing
Each feeling, the world
Or simply this rhetorical dream.
I can leave.
Should I stay?
Questions, with little answers.
Why would you design to keep me away?
I’ll fly to you or wait on the edge
of a fine line of love and more
with nothing that can stop
this want to simply explore
the nature of my bond to you,
the only way to connect and
Break free
Of your once caring hands.

^_^ Thankyou!
BUT... I think I might set this straight, so you don't think I am writing about something I am not. Because I don't want to be judged on that.
Though I believe very strongly in God, I do not especially like writing about Him, because I feel either would not be good enough to aptly describe what I feel and what has been done for me or it is one of those 'taking his name in vain' type things
though, i see how you get it. The whole 'my lord' was more in referance to the power that the other person has, and my respect and complete trust in him hahaha
sorry for being confusing though XD -
