Walking Alone

In the dead of night;

I lie restless thinking

Of you.

Enslaved by the darkness;

Underneath the Blue moon.

Like a parasite to a host;

takes over the light.

Which has left me caught in my own demise,

Burning out the flame inside.

I know you’re not in love with me, 

I should have known;

You weren't the one,

To think you were;

I was out of your league.

You're a master at rolling the dice;

Like a criminal; plotting the crime.

Now I see clearly; what you can never be.

Actions speak louder than words;

You tried to tell me; I chose not to believe.

Being with you;

My life was spinning in circles;

Leading to nowhere.

I'm never going back;

To a pathological liar.

You'll never be sorry;

Owning up to what u lack.

To keep my sanity,

I'm stepping away from the

Fire,

That disfigured my soul from the flames of desire.

After all the betrayal that was done,

Within the city lights;

We are like strangers.

That were never in love.
