"The Death Of Fascination"
12/30/2011

To think of her again
Day after day
I was left with things
I was ought to forsake
Like a murmur to the ears
Of she whom I loved
But forgetting is not easy
For people like us
For something near perfect 
Is not meant to last
More than a moment
Untouched in the past

I don't know why I didn't tell you
Back when it was real
When I thought that silence
Would breathe air to heal
What I regret to be true
About the past year
How I was only ever 
Slowly losing you

And I am an addict 
To many things, small joys
I indulge for pleasure
Among other sins
They have their definitions
And I have none
For you, my angel turned demon
Now I haven't one

Who I am when alone,
Was someone you could only know,
With me if a light shone,
But you can't understand,
And only I can truly guess,
Who you will remember,
As I change with all the rest,
As January eats December

The match strikes the match box,
You used to be the flame,
The kiss of asphyxiation,
My loss is your gain 

You were life to me, 
What now has turned to death, 
Without morning or feeling,
Angels above sneering, 
For the heart must first be tamed
Move on and forget
What it is that must be forgotten
To me you've been cruel
I lie to myself often
But this time, you are the fool

And it's all in the imagination, 
In the end, can't you see?
You are the creator 
Of your own destiny
Now be the death 
Of my fascination
And I will be the ghost 
Of your damned indecision
