Hell to pay ~

Peace comes with a reckless price,

  rested my head upon your soul

took refuge in an avenging blue heart

     uncomfortably sleep walking

  amidst a thousand crimson tears

you harnessed my spirit's zest 

my mind bubbled over in regret

  weakness of an unfurled breath

folded over a darkened bedpost

   silhouetted in haunting lust

monsters came out to play

  hell to pay for another try 

  reclined upon another night, 

indulged in unabashed impulses

arrested temperate indulgences

   composed in haunting poetic cues

dancing off the moonbeams

      that resided in my fool eyes

Truth, belief and trust are the cornerstones of our relationships. But sometimes we cannot find it and the burden is overwhelming. I felt the powerlessness of it as I read this:

indulged in unabashed impulses
arrested temperate indulgences
composed in haunting poetic cues
dancing off the moonbeams
that resided in my fool eyes
