Puppeteer you tug the strings
pull the pretty dolls close
a spiderweb you draw them in
choke their dreams with muddled lies
drown their hopes with tears
make them smile with false hope
then cast them off again
lost and a lone
a tempting lure
you drag them back
taunt them if they stay
deceit
deceiver
beautiful siren
destroying us all
your pretty dolls
who've been tainted by your poison
She laughs
Beautifully and painfully real
Never has he seen such life in her
She dances
And he feels the joy radiating from her
He loves her
She smiles
She knows
In the morning
She fades
And the world is dark
Her smile is a memory
The bed cold and empty
Reality breathes death again
Been down this road a hundred times before
Keep on giving all I've got
But you keep taking more
And I try and try to help you
But you keep throwing me away
So I'm taking back my heart
And leaving you today
And honey, honey try to understand
This time there was nothing left for me to lose
And honey, honey I'd cry over you
But now I find you aren't even worth the tears
Gave you my life
Gave you my love
Gave you comfort
You took
You take
You steal away
Til nothing remains
Hollow and angry
Empty and cold
I'm better off without you
And someday you'll be all alone.

She's like a rippling stream
Calm, relaxed, soothing
She has no fear of danger
And remains a source of refreshing
He's like fire
Always moving
Always restless
A blaze
Though sometimes only a flicker
Continuous change
The stream
And the flame
She's like the wind
Always moving forward
He's like ice
Never letting anyone through
Always alone
The ice and the wind
I remember the first time by bluegoldrose, literature
Literature
I remember the first time
I remember what it felt like the first time
The first time I did everything
Especially the first time I did anything with you
Your voice
Your smile
Your scent
The first caress of your lips
The feel of your skin against mine
The need to have you close
The first drive on a trip far away
The first time I lay down with you
The first time you made me love
I still remember all that I gave to you
And all that you gave to me
I still feel the pain in every fight
I still feel the hurt in every cut
I still remember you breaking my heart
Then winning me back
Just to break me again
And when you left me for someone else
I remember what
