Here no longer
           will I love you like a sniper
           watching from afar
           waiting for my perfect shot.
           Wishing I won't get caught.

Here no longer
           will I love you like a thief.
           sneaking in the dark
           my only motion causing grief
           taking what I want to keep.

Here no longer
           will I love you like a creep.
           playing with your heart
           an insult or two common
           hiding what I feel so honest.

Here no longer
           will I love like a torturer.
           poking at your veins
           causing needless pain
           to hear my favored scream.

In the here and now
I solemnly make this vow
to express my deepest sad
and share all this love brings
to life like nercomancy
my ghosts and skeletons
brought back to haunt me.

I'll do it. I'll look mad.
I'll blubber scream and cry
out these feelings fracturing.

For this break that you've started
shattered cold and hardened
revealing raw and tender meat
But I won't bicker or
                                                     flee.

I'll tell you why I kicked all
the good things outside of reach.
I'll tell you when my heart began
to bring back all the hurt I ran from.

I'll tell you how your eyes
shine with the light of interrogation.
But once who I am is revealed
I trust you not to laugh at my feels.

Here and where after
           we find our journey takes us
           I'll do my best to pay for
           what my heart has bought
           cause I am caught

           like a stinging razor web
           but I can't get out
           without your yes
           or firm reject.
