You think you know who I am
You look at me
What you see is a facade
Some of my forged audacity
You say people are my expertise
Undoubtedly delude them as I desire
But try to look beyond my cloak
See how I struggle from my disguise.
Even though how many times you pull away
And impose an eternal ache
No matter how hard you try to hide
Behind your vague misty eyes
Behind my hazy cloudy sight
I could unmistakably see
I know you love me.
But do you really know me?
You speak my name
As if you know I’m not that wild
Guileless gullible innocent lass
Nothing more than a child
I have riddles and rhymes as my armor
Sinister smile as my charm
Malevolence as my shadow
Darkness as my guard
Yet as a little girl that I am
As wicked I can be
Now there’s one question
How in the world could I be worthy?
How could it be possible to love me?
Now, do you know I love you too?
You may think not.
You never made it possible
That was your business
Nevertheless, I made it mine
We may be better off on our own
But we’d feel best when we’re not alone.
