People flow in all directions

rushing hastily to their destinations

I was there like a fish in a stream

Always there just following

A face everyone knew

But, never seen

Everyone says "hello" and "how are you?

They talk to a mask plastered on my face 

like the walls I had up

protecting, sheltering

their intentions aren't true

"I'm fine", I say "what about you?"

Peppy, full of energy, happiest person alive

noone ever questions if I am really

or if it's just a facade

The depths of my thoughts lead to nothing but darkness

alone, drowning

no one cares regardless

But, there once was a shadow

intriguing, different, and mysterious

like a raven

never sleeps like a vampire

yet, what is a shadow without light? 

I was attracted like a moth with reason

-- not wanting to get burned

But, I swear I died anyway

because my heart exploded with desire

from the luminosity bursting out from every fiber of my being

my dark knight exposed me,

steaking my armor

seducing me with his intellect and charisma

only to pull me in close to feel his heartbeat against my chest,

the alluring sensation of passion exchanged between our lips,

and the blade of his knife between my shoulder blades

through my sickened heart

poisoned

blinded by a light within the darkeness of my dreams

red. blood. running. cold.

I'm simply your ice queen.

all is dark

darker than before

like I'm drowning in a vortex of my sea of conflicting thoughts

my heart agonizing

hardening. frozen.

my mind lost

gone. dead

you saw me there deep within my soul where there was simply radience

purity

The scars that are left are trasured as the vision of what we were

and how I lost my glasses, yet it didn't matter

people flow in all directions

rushing hastily to their destinations

but, you remain here 

confined within my icebox

always.
