You told me I was blinding lights and you were a deer caught in them

So dazzlingly spectacular you saw your own self colourful in my eyes

Enchantment and awe glossing over those very eyes which look at me in contempt now

Tell me, did you think the lights would

never go off? did you think if you kept them on,

they'd stay?

even the most dazzling lightshows burst open to flames and ended

so did you not see it coming, did you not know that by day

 I'm rusted iron and chipped paintworks wearing off

anxious sights with brazen words 

did you get scared seeing me without my magic words and soothing caresses,

whispers that night breezes would be scared of

how could keep blinding lights so dazzling and not expect them to burn out how 

could you burn me out and then watch me with haunted eyes were you 

haunted by your sight in my colourless eyes, knowing you're not as precious without my 

lights?

sometimes i wonder if i'm 

delusional

and let you go because i couldn't bear to see

myself so colourless in those shining eyes of yours.
