My heart stringsI have seven golden hooks protruding from my chest, penetrating my beating heart Tethered to these hooks are No-Faces, beings I do not fathom nor know where to start Each clings tightly to rope connected to my heart, an aura from each envelopes me The time I have spent with these sorrowful creatures gave me time to name each entity The first I named Luxuria, her aura blue, unbridled passion exonerates She tugs fiercely on her rope, eyes meet eyes, denying her would be ignoring the fates The second, more foe than friend called Gula, aura orange, unquenchable starvation One hard pull on his rope.

My body ripped open, gentle clean hands reach inside, I can't feel anything, except fear for you, please do not die when I have yet to know you.

Safe HavenEverybody needs their safe haven, A place to go, a hideaway. An area of their very own That can be molded as they please. It's just so hard to make it there When I have to watch you leave.Safe Haven
I hear your voice, in that last goodbye We always drag it out. But long after you walk away I still feel the need to shout That I miss you terribly That I want you horribly.
